Alanna Smith '20 Recruiting Profile

    I started playing soccer when I was 5 and I realize I couldn't last one day without the ball. My parents enrolled me in club soccer during the 3rd grade, where I actually got to play on a team. I loved  playing with teammates, who became my best friends. I didn't care if we won or lost, I was having fun and loved what I was doing. I practiced everyday either by myself or with team mates as well as watch youtube videos on different kind of moves. I used to bead at juggle, but since I practiced and work hard, I'm better at it.  I have always work hard at everything I do my entire life. I started watching the Woman's national team on tv as well as other national teams. Ever since I started , my dream was to become a  professional soccer player and even if I don't make it, I still have my love for the game and I will always keep playing.
