Personal Statement

I have been playing soccer since I could walk and have always loved the game.  I will play at the highest level of competition that I can.

I realize that playing college soccer is a once in a lifetime opportunity.  I work hard on the field and make the people around me better through my actions.  In the classroom I study hard and try to achieve the highest grades I can.  I will go to college to excel academically and play soccer at the highest level I can.  I will continually push myself to be the best that I can be, both on and off the field.

I play as a forward/attacking midfielder.  As a forward my work rate and creativity makes me a dangerous threat to my opponents.  I use my speed, quickness, and awareness to get into open space, as well as create space for my teammates.  My technical abilities and strength allow me to skillfully control the ball at high pace.  I love to run at defenders to create scoring opportunities for myself and my teammates.  As an attacking mid, I find space in between the mid/defensive lines to move in and out of and disorganize my opponents.  My awareness lets me know where my teammates and opponents are at all times, and allows me to know where to play the correct pass at the right moment.
