Brayden Birnstiel '24 Recruiting Profile

My goal is to play at the college level and beyond. I want to persue soccer for as far as it will take me. What makes me a good candidate for any team is that I watch soccer all the time. I know the game and how it is played. I have been told by coaches that I have a great soccer aquity. I have been playing for 14 years and have a  love for the game. What makes me different than other recruits in character is I am a Christian. My life is embedded in my faith. I use that to grow on and off the soccer field. What makes me different in athletics is I have a strong determination and will to improve and get better. It is not always about the win for me, but rather the building of a team and how it can improve as a whole. Of course, I am playing to win, but growth is important to me, too. I am self motivated to improve and get better and will not give up until I achieve my goal. What makes me different in academics is I have been a straight A student my whole life. I pride myself on being the best version of myself on and off the pitch. I am not one to shy away from hard work. The mind to me is just as important as the body. I feel that I would be a great asset to any team because of my passion, perserverance, and pride for the team I am playing for.
