Tyler Villalva '21 Recruiting Profile

I'm Tyler Villalva and I'm 18 years old. Growing up I always had the highest of high dreams of playing soccer. Now that I understand the necessities and the work needed, I'm willing to do whatever is needed in order to succeed.

My dreams have been to get an education and play soccer for a college, my studies are very important to my future. Therefore my mind is set on my dream but more so on my future (meaning I will get my education where possible, while playing soccer ). Soccer inspires me to do my best and I want to be someone that others can look up to and be their inspiration. Soccer came to me very naturally with most of my family playing with my step dad playing through college and uncle that went on to play pro for a few years. Through them I've learned the game, strategy, tactics, and technical skills.

I’ve always played the beautiful game since I could walk, and I would like to keep on playing with the years left unfortunately nobody can play forever, so for as long as I can play I would like to keep progressing and keep playing at higher levels.
