Personal Statement
I would like my college experience to be a great balance of athletics, education and social life. I have not decided on a major yet but leaning towards life sciences or technology. I have a sister that has gone to a Division 2 college to play soccer and is in nursing school with plans to get her Masters. She plays Keeper for Southwestern Oklahoma State and as a freshman she made 1st Team All Conference in the Great American Conference. I have seen how athletics has helped her transition to college life and bond with teammates. I am looking forward to doing the same.
My dream, from a young age, was to be a professional keeper. I started playing soccer when I was 4 years old and the passion for the game has grown over the years. I understand that the odds are against my dream coming true, but if you know anything about me then you know I am good at beating the odds and always up for a challenge.
In soccer, I have been competing at the highest level offered in Austin since I was in 6th Grade. (USDA / GA) In 8th Grade (13yrs old) Lonestar had me play up on the U17 USDA team with most of my games being played on the U16 USDA. I will have played 3 years in a row for the U19USDA/GA by the end of my SR year.
I consistently push my skills and athletic ability to my limits and beyond. I have received a lot of rewards but the one that means the most to me is the "Spit Award",
For
Work Ethic & Grit, voted on by my team.
My Goal is to lead by example and to leave my team with no question, which team has the best Keeper.
