Emma Zirar '26 Recruiting Profile

I have been playing field hockey for more than half of my life. To me hockey is not just a sport it is a way to make unbreakable bonds, learn and fail, and help you throughout life. What makes me a good candidate is that I am a team player. I think that the only way to truly succeed is with the help of others. That is because, in hockey, you might be a great player but with the help of your fellow teammates you can become even better. I am very dedicated and always aspire to be the best I can be. I do this by seeking out feedback from my fellow teammates and my coaches. I have also moved around a lot 7 times exactly to many different countries such as Qatar, The Netherlands, and more. This has led me to always be happy in any situation and be able to make bonds easily with teammates. Even though my living situation changed I have always played field hockey as it keeps me center. What makes me different from the other recruits in character is that I always want to do my best in hockey and personality. I want to be the happiest, dedicated, and kindest person I can be for me and my teammates. I also do my best in academics. I am an IB student (international baccalaureate) which is a very thorough program. To be able to do that I have to have high grades and a lot of will and dedication to pursue it. This also reflects my dedication to everything I do. With that, I hope to wish everyone a great day and to think of me as a  future prospect.
