2020 Highlights
2019 HighlightsPersonal Statement
I have been playing soccer since age 4 and travel soccer since age 9. I have been playing mostly Left Back for my club, but have played Center Back, Left Midfield, and Center Midfield. Many times I get moved around and play different positions within the same game.
I have played many different positions for my High School team. I have played left/right wing, center back, center midfield. I am a team captain for my Senior year. I was named 3rd team all region and all region academic team for junior season.
In the summer of 2018, I traveled to Spain (Barcelona and Madrid) with the Richmond Strikers 2005 boys to play in 3 international friendlies.
I hope to continue to play in college. I understand the time commitment playing competitive soccer requires. I feel confident I can manage school and soccer requirements.
I have been a certified soccer referee since 2019.
I am in a High School Specialty Center where I am dual enrolled starting summer 2021 and will graduate high school with an associate degree from J Sargent Reynolds Community College before graduating high school. I will graduate high school with at least 60 transferable college credits.
