Sara Ferreira '23 Recruiting Profile

I have been playing soccer for as long as I could remember. I am very dedicated, hard working, competitive and have a high mentality. I spend countless hours training every week, whether it be at practices or on my own. I play NPL/ENPL in the USYS and EDP Leagues with Quickstrike FC as a  center midfielder, and have been ever since I was 9 years old. In addition, when I was 8-11 years old, I played on a separate premiere team on top of that. I was soon asked to play NPL by Coach Jay Myers, at age 9, and later left my premiere team to pursue my NPL/ENPL career. 

I take the responsibility very seriously. I play year-round with Quickstrike FC, with the addition of Varsity season in the fall, and extra camps in the summer. With Quickstrike FC we do tournaments all over the country. I started my High School Varsity career as a starting freshman center midfielder. I am very disciplined, and always concentrated whether it be on or off the field.  My current Coaches at Quickstrike FC are Jesse and Brittany Komel. Their high-level training has pushed me everyday to give 110%, whether it be at games or practices. 

Academics are also just as important to me. I take academics very seriously, currently holding a 4.0 gpa. I am planning to take Honors and AP classes when available starting sophomore year. I put in hard work in both sports and school. I feel I need a school that will both push me in sports as well as academics.  It has always been a dream of mine to perform at the collegiate level, to contribute my speed, agility, crossing, shooting, and set-ups for goals. With my unique mindset and skill during games, I was given the nickname "secret weapon". I feel I would be a good asset to a collegiate level team, and give 110% all the time.
