Chase Cortese '18 Recruiting Profile

I would love to play Soccer in College.  I am also willing to play football if that is an option.  I am dual sport but Soccer is my primary.  I am an actor, with and Agent and Manager, so I would love to play in California.  I prefer a large school with a great academic record.  I currently have a 4.2 weighted GPA and I am in an International Baccalaureate Program.  I have played soccer since the age of 4.  I absolutely love the game.  It is truly my passion.  Every year, I attend ID camps in California so I can push myself to be a better player.  I am very competitive.  I made varsity as a Freshman and was a starter my Sophomore and Junior year.  I received an Honorable Mention last year and this year I am currently ranked #2 in points and #1 in assists for my district.  I play 3 positions depending on the team that we are playing.  I play Center Attacking Mid, Forward and Wing.  I have incredible speed and will beat my opponent to the ball 95% of the time, hence, I probably play wing more than any position.  Because I am small, I find it very easy to draw fouls. I have outstanding character.  Unlike many of my peers, I am not a drinker or partier.  I am more of the designated driver.  I am the President of the Triumph Over Kid Foundation and the President of the Do That One Thing Council.  Both of these organizations fund cancer research and the funds are matched by MD Anderson.  I have been involved with these entities for years.  All summed up, I am a great dedicated athlete, with outstanding grades and I give back to my community through my charitable work.  My parents have also fully funded my college so I am not asking for any scholarship funds.  I just want to play soccer.  I will be a great asset and role model for your team.
