Cal Lutz '24 Recruiting Profile

Hey coaches! My name is Cal and I play the nine. I consider my best attributes to be my touch, vision, speed, height, and technical skills. 

I am spending my junior year of high school at the Talent Projekt, a residency academy outside of Munich, Germany. It’s been a great and challenging experience so far!  We regularly compete against very high-level youth academies including Bayern Munich, RB Salzburg (Austria), TSV 1860 Munich, FC Ingolstadt 04, TSV 1860 Rosenheim, and many others. Not only am I learning European tactics and movements, but also how to balance school and training, live with a roommate and navigate life in a new country!

My past club experience has been at the MLS Next levels at LA Surf and LA United Futbol Academy.

Outside of soccer I also love giving back to my community. I am a part of an organization called Lion's Heart. We do local volunteer work, including trash cleanup, food drives, baking for seniors, and other community work.

I would love to play at the highest level possible. That has always been what I use to push myself.  My development over many years has been driven by a want to be the most successful. Success to me, is achieving a goal but not stopping there, it is trying to reach as far as you possibly can. My goal is to play at a high level college and have success both in academics and soccer. School has also been very important to me. I have always worked to be a straight A student, and I hope to keep it that way for the rest of my high school career. My priorities  are very clear to me and I will continue to do my best in school and on the pitch.
