Caleb Johnson '24 Recruiting Profile

I grew up in Africa, where I started playing street soccer when I was 3 or 4.  After I moved to the States at age 12, I soon decided to get serious about the sport.  Soccer has always been my one passion for as long as I can remember.  At each higher level of play, I love the increase in game speed and new challenges.  I am now focused on pursuing college soccer and finding a team that is fun and competitive.  Technically speaking, I'm comfortable with the ball on my feet.  But I prefer possession-based team play and quick ball movement.  I enjoy playing a lot of one-touch/two-touch passing movements and teams that progress the play by passing through midfield.  When on the ball, I get my head up quickly and try to assess passing options.  I'm also pretty good at reading the game and anticipating where I need to be defensively.  I've been working on long passing, and I was my high school team's free kick specialist.
