Personal Statement
As an attacking forward, my play is aggressive and physical. I have excellent technical ability and tactical awareness and my speed and physical play allows me to beat the last defender. I work to constantly improve my game through year round training and am 100% committed to the sport. My club team is the Harrison Elite Lightning. I finished my club team season with 24 goals and 14 assists. My junior year, I was named varsity captain of my HS team, a member of the student-athlete leadership council and was awarded the 2013 Most Improved Player Award. I finished my 2014 HS season with 14 goals and 2 assists.
My strengths as a player includes: strong physical play, explosive speed, situational awareness, finding space off the ball, finishing shots, directional first touch and switching point of attack.
My goals are to be the best student athlete I can be by being disciplined, dedicated and committed to my athletics and academics. By achieving these goals, I'm confident I will have many opportunities to positively impact my future both on the field and off. I want to get an excellent college education, excel and contribute to my team's athletic success and graduate with a degree in Marketing and a minor in Sports Management.
