Zakaria Kashindi '21 Recruiting Profile

The love of soccer started since i was 7 years old. When I first stepped on the field, I knew I could play at collegiate level. Playing Soccer in college is an  opportunity that could change my life and it could also inspire my fellow immigrants to try to become college athletes.

- I handle the ball with excellent skills

- I'm a team leader and a team player

- I encourage my team mates 

- I'm coachable and I can be one of the hardest players and one of the hardest working recruits you will find.

- I'm patient, responsible, i strive to be the best in my level

- i'm respectable and i have a good communication with people

I thank God for giving me this opportunity. Most refugee students give up on their dreams at a young age because they believe that there's no way they could make it to their dreams. But i'm different, i know for a fact that one day i'll make it out there and i will inspire a lot of people. 

I want to be somewhere I could push my self in the classroom and on the field. I hope to become a great role model to others and make them proud.
