Jacob Cooper '18 Recruiting Profile

I have been playing soccer all of my life and have never found anything that I love so much. I find myself constantly dedicated to improve and never let myself settle for where I am at. I am a dedicated athlete as well as a student, putting the effort in on and off the field.

What sets me apart from everyone else is my knowledge of the game. I play tactically, putting myself into situations that allow me the highest possibilities for success. I use my knowledge of the game to make important decisions as well as play an overall smarter game than most others at my position. I know that the small adjustments are what make or break an opportunity.  Along with smarts, I play a very aggressive game style and I am not afraid to get into tackles with people of similar size or bigger. I pride myself in being as smart and as aggressive as I can be in games, playing to the best of my abilities each and every game.

I feel that I would be a good addition to a team because of the knowledge that I bring along with the hard work and dedication. I am willing to put in what it takes to improve and get the desired outcome.
