Kelsey Lawrence '24 Recruiting Profile

Since I was little I've wanted the opportunity to play D1 college soccer at a top school in academics and extra curricular's.  I am a strong athlete on the field but off of the field, I am very focused on my education. I have been an honor-roll student my whole life. I have played soccer my whole life and I’ve also ran track. I also competed with the Olympic  Development program for two years in the state of Maryland and was invited to play internationally. In addition, as a freshman I made my high schools varsity soccer team during the spring, and I have continued on to be a starter through my junior year.  I was also awarded defensive MVP as my team progressed to the state semi-finals. 

As an athlete I prefer to play center back but I have had experience in all positions on the field including goalie.  I have played soccer since I was three and started playing club/ travel soccer when I turned 7.   Since I can remember soccer has always been a strong focus for me outside of my academics.   On my limited free time I coach for a 2015-2019 youth soccer team in my community for Maryland Elite . I currently play for Southern Maryland Rush 05’ girls, located in southern Maryland. Southern  Maryland Rush practices academy style so I have an opportunity to work with younger girls and help improve skill.

In high school I participate in many clubs such as Key club and student council. In addition to starting on varsity, my team has since become the number 8 girls high school team in the state. Winning regional championships and competing at a high level, I have quickly adapted to a  working hard and playing with confidence.
