Kiara Clarke '24 Recruiting Profile

I have been playing soccer since I was three years old. I have always been motivated and passionate when it comes to soccer, since my earlier years I have been aspiring to play at one of the top collegiate levels, during my collegiate career I am determined to further my skills and continue developing to be able to pursue my big goal of playing professionally.  I am very well rounded, I have my own work ethic that I am driven and passionate about; private training: speed, agility and strength alongside private field training to develop my skills and to get as many touches on the ball as possible. I am disciplined and obsessed with the process. I strongly believe that the most important part of any career; high school, club, college, and professionally is the process before your destination, the moments that aren't always enjoyable but necessary for success.  

I thrive in environments where I am challenged and I enjoy working hard to overcome them. I am very well suited to perform at high levels of competition while maintaining excellent academic performance too. I am coachable and I like receiving feedback and constructive criticism. I strive to be one of the hardest working and most passionate players on the team, I am one of the hardest working recruits you’ll find.

I have found over the years of experience that I am fully capable of providing good responses when it comes to difficulties and obstacles, in school, in soccer and in life. I enjoy being proactive and I like when someone suggests “you can’t” or “ you won’t” because it gives me all of more reasons to prove them wrong. I thrive in leadership roles and competitive environments, I enjoy working hard.

I have always been academically inclined, I enjoy reading, researching and doing everything in my power to have the best grades and GPA possible. I want to pursue biochemistry as my field of study. I chose this because I really enjoy science and I am good at math. I am a part of the TSA team, I am an AVID mentor and a tutor. I like volunteering and helping others.

I plan to continue pushing myself and devoting myself to the things stated previously. I have a lot of room left for development and improvements, my ceiling is not within reach yet.
