Genevieve Balmer '23 Recruiting Profile

Soccer used to be just a game for me—but now it’s so much more.  Over the years, soccer has taught me the importance of strong work ethic and encouraged me to set goals and aspire to greatness.  My goals include: continue to develop and play soccer at the highest level, put my team first, and be the best student-athlete possible on and off the field. 

I’m not your typical student-athlete. I am balanced. On the field, I’m a highly coachable, passionate, ultra-competitive, hard-working team player. I hold myself to the highest athletic standards and accountability.  There’s no place I’d rather be than at the fields sharpening my game, which showed my freshman high school season (2019) on varsity, as I scored a Sunrise Conference high of 25 goals and won the Golden Boot. I also put in the work on the field for my club soccer team.  Off the field, I’m known for my high emotional intelligence, as well as top-of-my class book smarts. I carry an unweighted 4.0 GPA and challenge myself with all honors classes (and AP when available), including foreign language.

My main goal for the future is to play college soccer and study criminal justice.I aspire to work for the Behavioral Analysis Unit of the Federal Bureau of Investigation.
