Darren Gordon '22 Recruiting Profile

Soccer is all I know; I’ve been playing it since before I could remember. The first time I played with a ball was when I was 2 years old. As long as I had a ball I was entertained and I’ve been playing soccer every year since then, sometimes I would play indoor and outdoor. Some kids like playing in mud or picking flowers for fun but I was different my source of fun was soccer and it still is. Soccer has had a huge impact on my life from the people I met, the situations I get put in and learn from, to the fitness I get out of it. Soccer has always come over everything from hanging out with friends or just relaxing because I had a long day but the one thing soccer won’t come before is academics. 

For my academics my goals are only to do the best I can and try my best because I want the best possible future for myself and the only way to do that is to take my academics seriously. For collage I haven’t quite decided on what collage or what I want to do but I still have three years to decide on what I want to do. But what I do know now is I want to get in to a good collage\university with a good soccer team and a good program so I can focus on improving my soccer skills and my academic opportunity’s all in one place.
