Ben Jones '25 Recruiting Profile

I am a diverse player who can play in several positions including striker, right wing, left wing, and attacking midfielder. I play for Hoover Vestavia 07 MLS NEXT, and Jackson Academy Varsity Soccer. As an attacking player my strengths include a good first touch, speed with the ball, ability to read the game, and ability to beat defenders 1v1. Due to my experience on different teams and with multiple different coaches I have a depth of experience when it comes to different styles and tactics of play such as dropping in, staying high, staying wide, making inside runs, or holding the ball high as a striker. These principles enhance my ability to be a dangerous attacking player. I hold myself to high standards in psychological aspects of the game including respect, discipline, work rate, and coachability.  I also have high academic standards that are shown by my academic accomplishments.
