Emma Barnes '21 Recruiting Profile

        Ever since elementary school, one of my most notable qualities has been my personable disposition and my innate ability to make friends. Growing up in the small town of Clayton has enabled me to make good friends and keep in touch, as most of the people who I've known as long as preschool continue their studies alongside me.  As fortunate as I am to be able to grow up with my friends and peers, I feel as though college will allow me to immerse myself in a more diverse environment and broaden my social plane.  In addition to this, I have always been a strong student who enjoyed being challenged both inside and outside of the classroom setting. I feel as though college would give me the push I need to become a better and stronger person. Along with that, soccer is my favorite part. Soccer is where I be my best, it allows me to express my leadership skills and talent. I would love you take my passion for soccer as far as I can.
