Brendon Raggiunti '24 Recruiting Profile

When I was little I had aspirations of  being a high performance soccer player. Overtime, my dreams only grew and I began to take the necessary steps in making them my reality. My faith in God, being the most important aspect of my life, helps me to take on any challenge that comes my way. Through difficult times, I am aware that my strength will come from my strong sense of self, my morals and my values. With the support of my loving family, they encourage me to strive for my best in whatever I do. Being the youngest of four siblings, it is my responsibility to continue the success and make them proud. I was taught that academics are a fundamental key to success in life, as it can open doors to many opportunities in my future. My parents have always taught me to work hard academically, and the rest will come. What I know for sure is that my knowledge, my education can't ever be taken from me.

I always strived to play at the highest level of soccer I could. I pride myself on being extremely coachable. I will always work hard on and off the field. I care about the people around me, and wish them every success. My ambition to play college soccer comes from the belief that athletics provides players with life lessons and memories that will never be forgotten. I am blessed for being taught discipline, determination and motivation by the game of soccer, and I continue to look forward to many more years playing this sport. I truly believe if we lift each other up, we all win.
