Alexander Herrera '23 Recruiting Profile

Update:  I completed my first season (2023) at The College of Saint Rose. Unfortunately, the school is closing so I'm looking for a new school to continue my studies and play soccer.

I’ve been playing soccer ever since I was the age of 4 and have been in love with the game ever since I stepped foot on the field. I have always strived to be a top player in this game and playing at the collegiate level has been one of my main goals. I believe playing at the collegiate level could provide opportunities for me as a player or coach in the future.

I was first introduced to soccer by my Grandfather who was from Colombia. He taught me all he knew and was the main reason why I play the game today. My father and my uncle both played at the D1 collegiate level as well. They loved the game dearly and they inspired me to be like that when I grew up.

As a player, I am technical with good vision and creativity. I have a strong work rate and play both sides of the ball.  I’m gifted and use it to draw defenders and open passing lanes.  Most importantly, I’m a good teammate.

I'm looking forward to what the future brings athletically and academically.
