Alec Willett '21 Recruiting Profile

I have been very passionate about soccer ever since I was young. My dream has always been to play professionally, and college soccer is the next step. The college soccer atmosphere has always appealed to me, giving your all for the school you represent, making lifelong friends with your teammates, and playing against other top level players. I couldn’t imagine my life not playing soccer so I plan to go as far as I can. 

Some of the biggest ways I help my team is with my good foot skills, ability to go forward to create and finish opportunities or stay back and defend, and my smart decision making. I also have a very strong mentality. I will do whatever it takes to improve myself to reach the next level. I also maintain a positive vibe and will encourage and try to bring the team morale up and stay positive in the face of adversity. For example a couple years back my team was demoted to division 2. And when most of my friends left to join a different team. I stayed positive and helped bring the team back up to division 1 the very next season.

My goals for college soccer and beyond is to play at the highest level possible. I want to play with and against the best of the best. But of course I also want a school that fits my academic goals and my personality. A school with a nice campus feel and a good education.
