William Pettus '19 Recruiting Profile

I primarily play winger or defensive midfielder, the 7 and 6. Both of these positions incorporate some of my many strengths on the field. As a winger I have speed to make diagonal runs into the box and also to beat the outside back to put in a cross. As a defensive midfielder I am very aggressive and utilize my size and strength to shield the ball or break the attacking team's forward movement. Also as the 6, I control the ball very well and am able to switch the point of attack quickly and efficiently when one side is in a numbers down situation. However, the club that I play for has taught me to play every position and understand the roles and responsibilities that come with it, so I am very versatile and can play in any position. I have made the ODP South Texas team 2 years in a row and have gone to alabama to play at the region three camp. I also excel in school and study hard for all my classes and I am always on top of my academics. I hope to study medicine in college to become a physical therapist or occupational therapist. I feel that I would make a great addition to your team.
