Addison Hardcastle '26 Recruiting Profile

My name is  Addison Hardcastle, and I am a 2026 graduate. Soccer has been an important part of my life since I was a little girl, and it has shaped me in countless ways.

The thrill of the game, is something that I love!  It was in the 5th grade that I took a significant step forward in my soccer journey by joining FC Dallas, my local club team. That moment marked the beginning of a greater love with the sport.

Today, I play for Searcy High School and the Searcy Rangers, my local club team. As a member of these teams, I've had the privilege of playing alongside incredibly talented individuals who share the same passion for the game. The bond we share, the highs and lows we experience together, make every moment on the field priceless.

Beyond the field, I'm a self-driven individual. I take it upon myself to create workouts and training routines to continually improve my skills and become a better player. Dedication and hard work are values that I hold dear, not just in soccer but in all aspects of my life.

For me, academics are equally important. I believe that getting good grades is a reflection of commitment and discipline, qualities that are essential on and off the field. Balancing my education and soccer is a challenge I gladly accept, as it pushes me to excel in both areas.

Family and friends mean the world to me. Their support and encouragement have been the basis of my journey, and I cherish the moments I spend with them. Their love and unwavering belief in me fuel my ambition to succeed and make them proud.

As a member of the graduating class of 2026, I look forward to continuing my journey, both academically and athletically. Soccer will always be one of the best experiences in my life, I'm excited to explore new horizons and embrace the opportunities that lie ahead. My goal is to continue growing as a person and as a player, to make a positive impact on my team and community, and to always remember that success is not just about winning on the field but about being the best version of myself.
