Easton Bogard '24 Recruiting Profile

Verbal Commitment - Indiana University

I fell in love with soccer at six years old. Very quickly I realized I had a natural gift and began to study the game by watching the Premier League. Ever since, I had aspirations of playing for high school, college, and professionally. In addition to studying the game, I knew I needed to put in extra work others would not do. I put a heavy focus on working on my weak foot and foot work to find space to get a shot off to become the most efficient goal scorer I could be. After seeing quick improvement, I began to pride myself on my work ethic. Through my hard work and experience I was given captaincy at my club. After many years of captaincy I have developed strong leadership skills that I can offer to collegiate programs. During tough times in games, I take the responsibility to try to make a difference and to get a response from my team. I am highly motivated by playing and at the collegiate level I want to find a team where I will have the opportunity to have significant playing time and to make a positive impact on the program. I have such a passion for soccer that I want to go to a college where I can earn a degree that allows me to work for a club - whether as a player, coach, or in the front office.
