Carley Polchak '20 Recruiting Profile

• I am usually the one left standing in a collision. I can take a hit.
• My body type is excellent for a keeper, 5'8", and 170, I am solid and athletic!  
• I'm a fast sprinter 
•  I have good hands and a powerful punt.
•  I enjoy competition and  I really enjoy winning!

Our FC Copa Team was good!, I’ve been on a few good teams. We enjoyed the competition, everyone worked hard. We won some pretty nice competitions ( see some tournament info below). I will miss my teammates a lot but I am adaptable and excited about the next season.  The 2019-2020 season will see me in goal with the “02’s.  I’ll be sharing the goal, with their long standing keeper.

I am a three year Varsity player, playing my 4^th season Varsity as a senior this year.   I was proud to be on the 2017 soccer team that made history for the Manchester High School. It was the first time we were ever Division B Champions, there were other firsts too(see press area).  I had several Player of the Week Nominations. Coach Moore moved the Senior Keeper out of the keeper position that year and they gave the goal to me, the only keeper in goal for the whole season. We won a lot, and I was part of that for sure!  I will be the only keeper on a young, inexperienced team this year so I expect a lot of action and it would be great to see an interested Coach come out and see one of those games.

I am interested in Physical Therapy, Exercise Science or a related field. How I will use my degree in my career is not fully known to me but I think I would like to help injured athletes in their recovery.  I also enjoy journalism and can see these areas of study combining for an interesting 4 years of study.
