I believe that I am a very valuable candidate for playing at a collegiate level because of my many qualities that I have such as my dedication, discipline, and resilience. As a center midfielder and a straight A student, I am extremely hardworking and driven. This is evident as I play the most physically and mentally demanding position. I have grown from a talented hardworking player to who is now a leader on my team that is consistently asked by my coach to navigate the team through adversity. My work ethic and drive for success sets an example for my teammates. I am also a positive and influential team mate who is a very loyal, conscientious, and honest person. Aside from my qualities on the field, I have many academic accomplishments. In the classroom, I succeeded in my freshman year and continued that during my sophomore year of high school with a 4.0 or above gpa. The qualities of being able to slow down or speed up the pace and dictate the game on the field, my academic succession, and my ability to learn and grow as a player, shows that I can become a very complete player at a collegiate level.
