Leah Zallee '23 Recruiting Profile

I'm the Varsity Boys' Goal Keeper. I have no fear on the field no matter who I'm playing against and am an all-or-nothing kind of person. I strive to lead the team with intensity, integrity, and humility. I've been playing soccer since I was five or six (if you include the magnet-ball soccer camps that is) and began playing rec. at 7 and continued until I was 11 when I was invited to join the Eastside Timbers. After playing club for a year, I had to stop due to financial reasons, but I continued playing soccer through my school team. As a high school student-athlete, I have been to State in all three of my sports. Athletics, and more importantly soccer, is such an integral part of who I am. Strength and athleticism makes me confident in myself. I want to be strong in every sense of the word without any qualification of being a "strong female". My whole world revolves around sports, academics, and my faith. Outside of sports practices and school, I love to do strength and conditioning.

I'm interested in kinesiology and sports science; I want to become a personal trainer or something similar. I value academic excellence as much as my performance on (and off) the field.
