Ava Lyon ‘25 Recruiting Profile

Personal Statement

My name is Ava and I would like to play competitive soccer in college. I love sports & athletic activities including snowboarding. But soccer has always been my favorite sport. I have practiced and improved my abilities throughout high school both on my high school team & training at camps or on my own. Time is limited & I am disciplined to manage my International Baccalaureate degree with my athletic goals. While residing in Japan, I have taken advantage of every option for soccer teams and training. This includes working with as many teams and coaches as possible (Shibuya Artista, IMG holiday soccer camp, School seasons) to prepare for college. I am currently working with a personal soccer trainer & a fitness/nutrition coach to improve my skill development, technique, mental approach & fitness. I’m looking forward to the opportunity to compete at the college level.
