Erin Girhiny 2017...Personal Statement
I will be a 2017 high school graduate from St. Paul High School in Niagara Falls Ontario, Canada.
Education:
I hope to obtain an Athletic and/or Academic scholarship while pursuing an education in Health Sciences and playing collegiate soccer. I have maintained honour grades throughout high school and currently have a 3.7 GPA in my junior year.
Soccer:
I would describe my game play as aggressive, with a soft touch possession style of soccer. I am a center back, but am as capable playing in the fullback, or holding mid positions as well. For the past six years, Coach Lucio Ianiero has coached me. Coach Lucio is a past Canadian National team member where he has emphasized possession play.
I've had the privilege of playing on the province of Ontario's region 6 squad where I was coached by Joey Lombardi, who currently assists in coaching the Canadian Women's National u17 and u20 teams.
In addition to playing in the OYSL this season, I trained with the St. Catharines Jets u21 girls, coached by Andrew Vitaterna, whose team went undefeated in the OWSL Provincial South Division.
I would consider myself a great teammate. I am always there for my teammates, on and off of the field. I want to be the best that I can be, to help everyone around me be the best that they can be.
