Sydney Bollis '24 Recruiting Profile

If you are looking for a versatile, driven, selfless, big-game player, look no further.  I am the lockdown defender your team is looking for.   

Why do I consider myself a big-game player? I have significant experience at all of the following levels:

• - U.S. Youth Soccer Midwest Conference Premier I
• - Super Y
• - Wisconsin State Cup Semi-Final (3x)
• - Wisconsin ODP (2x)
• - High School Varsity (started every game as a Freshman)
• The bigger the game, the better.  For example, this past high school season, I shut down the Conference Player of the Year, allowing our team to win the conference title in a 3-0 victory.  
• Above, I also characterized myself as being selfless.  This is best illustrated by the entire Fall 2020 season where I broke a bone in my foot in August during a practice.  I was able to fight through the pain and play nearly every minute of every game (other than when I was on close contact COVID restrictions) to help my team represent our club well in the USYS Midwest Conference Premier I league.  
• Following the Fall 2020 season, I rested my broken foot and got back at it as soon as possible.  I was driven to resume training so I could make the Wisconsin ODP team and my high school varsity team, which I did.
• Although I have had a significant amount of success playing sweeper for my club in a three back system (i.e., named to the Midwest Conference Best XI) and center back for my high school in a four back system (i.e., named to the 1st Team All-Conference), I am willing to help my team in any capacity needed.  In the past year, I have been asked to play all of the following positions based upon the circumstances: outside back, center back, center midfield and forward.  I enjoy the challenge of learning these new positions, and I am up for any challenge you could throw my way.
