Alexis Kelly Marie Alejo '20 Recruiting Profile

I started playing soccer around the age of 6 starting with AYSO after following the footsteps of my older brother. Since that time soccer has been a large part of my life and I knew that it was something that I would fall in love with. From then on I joined club teams and the game became more competitive from there. Soccer has given me the opportunity to express who I am on and off the field. From facing challenges, learning to problem solve, and most importantly, teamwork, dedication, and commitment.
In September of 2018, I had completely torn my ACL and part of my Meniscus. This event brought me to a very low stage of my life, and I thought that everything I had was potentially over. But as I started my recovery process, I knew that I needed to keep a strong mindset to get back on the field and back where I needed to be. I am looking for a program that will be a perfect fit for me academically and athletically. Acedemically to help me gain more knowledge in order to persue my nursing career in the future, and athletically to where there is an open spot in my position where I can make a great impact to a team, as well.
