Payton Brantley '24 Recruiting Profile

I began playing soccer when I was 6 years old and can truly say that it is one of my genuine passions in life. Throughout my career I have played at middle school, high school, and club level, and I currently am a member of the PDA Hibernian. 

I am a very good dribbler and I am comfortable using both feet. I primarily play winger but I am able to adapt to multiple positions on the field and also have experience playing fullback and striker. I was a 3 year member of South Brunswick High School’s Varsity Boys soccer team and was a key player and was co-captain as we made our way to the GMC final.

In addition to practicing three times per week with my club team, I incorporate additional training by heading to the field and working on my skills individually. Soccer has taught me dedication, commitment, and perseverance which are things that I carry with me both on and off the field. My diligence extends into the classroom where I maintain a GPA of 3.0. 

This sport has molded me into the person I am today and I have aspired to play soccer at a collegiate level since the first time I stepped on to a field. I am looking for a competitive soccer program that will allow me to grow and further develop my skills as well as make positive contributions to the team on the field.
