David Garvin '20 Recruiting Profile

As a soccer player, my strength is my size. When you look at my highlight tape you can see that I am good in the air but I am not a one-dimensional player.  I see the field well and love to combine with my teammates.  I love every aspect of soccer; training, playing and watching.  I always want to improve.  I self evaluate all the time and work on my weaknesses.  When I go on the field, whether as a starter or a sub my goal is to make a difference in the game.   Through the years my coaches have said I am very coachable and have complimented me on my work ethic.  

This year my team went all the way to the championship.  It wasn't easy though.  We had a  lot of talent but didn't work as a team.  When the playoffs started we really began to play as a unit. It made a huge difference and I learned that the team is stronger than the individuals.  

Academics are important to me and I work hard to balance my soccer with my school work.  Getting good grades is great but just like in soccer I like the journey.  I enjoy learning new concepts and applying them to my work.  I am interested in a variety of subjects and have not really settled on what I want to focus my college studies on yet.
