Dante Valencia '21 Recruiting Profile

My goals as a collegiate student athlete consist of receiving an advanced education in the business field of studies and competing at the highest level of soccer my skills and abilities will allow. As an athlete, I am experienced in nearly all positions on the field from playing the role of center back for my ECNL club team Classics Elite for a few years, to moving out wide as an outside back, experiencing some time as a holding/ attacking mid, and now for club and school, playing more in the attacking roles as a forward and outside mid. Academically, I have always been on top of my grades keeping an A honor roll all throughout high school and still holding to that as a current senior. I am always willing to do the work exactly as asked and even going beyond the requirements of each assignment. I am responsible with my time management between life, school, and athletics, as I train nearly every day of the week or am involved in some activity with soccer or researching the direction I will be headed towards in the near future. I am hoping to find a home that offers me the best support both academically and athletically as I seek a challenging setting or environment that will allow me to grow most within both fields. I am committed fully towards whichever environment I find myself in and look forward to experiencing nothing but success for myself and those around me.
