Tyler Russel '20 Recruiting Profile

I am a highly positive athlete. Playing just your position is not doing your job. For instance, as a goalkeeper I have to keep the ball out of the net. Well not only that but I need to control the flow of the game. Same goes for the rest of the teammates on the field. You win when you have chemistry with your team. With the directing skills I present on the field I keep the game the game in our favor. I present similar skills in the classroom. I do my best to prevent a discussion from dying down.  I'm always eager to learn more in the classroom. However, one thing that  has made me the person I am today is soccer. Soccer has taught me discipline through hard work. With the hard training you have to push through to be better and the amount of focus during the game. This discipline also came along with training. I train harder and harder everyday to keep myself where I am. I even train when I need time to think about life. Training is like therapy for me. This discipline also shows in the classroom. It keeps me focused on my studies and constantly trying to improve my academics. My dedication to the game of soccer is what separates me from others.
