Matthew Ciavarro '20 Recruiting Profile

My goal: to achieve my full potential and highest level in professional soccer while maintaining academic excellence.

Over the years, I have had to balance and learn how to time manage in an effective and efficient way and learn what the real world is like for student-athletes in adapting to playing soccer and maintaining academics. I feel that every day I am working to get prepared for another chapter in my life.  Academics in my highschool is advanced as opposed to other public schools in my area and is already challenging me with university/college caliber classes and skills I can take with me throughout my journey in whatever my life has to throw at me.

I can cope on the field in the desperation minutes of a game, or before that last exam that will shape or break the results. I am aware of the concept pressure makes diamonds, and I am ready and continuously learning to help prepare for whatever opportunity or challenge arises. I will always put my full effort and heart into whatever I do to find a way to succeed.
