Gianna Birdsall '26 Recruiting Profile

I have been playing soccer since I was four years old and have never stopped loving it since. Throughout the years I have developed a strong passion for the sport by playing with my club teams, but also by playing pickup with family and friends. I love watching it professionally and closely follow the English Premier League especially my favorite professional team, Crystal Palace FC.  I have always dreamed of playing at the college level and will work as hard as possible to achieve that dream. 

I am a hard worker and strive to be the best I can be. I am coachable, respectful to coaches, teammates, and opponents, and lead by example. I am fast and strong when going one v. one. On off days I work to keep up my foot skills and fitness by training on my own. 

I am diligent in the classroom and work to keep my grades near perfect, maintaining a high GPA. I am a class leader and work to be the best I can possibly be in all aspects of my life.

I want to play at the highest level possible in college and will work to find a school that will challenge me both on the field and in the classroom.
