Jordan Bearden '22 Recruiting Profile

Some four-year olds chase butterflies on a field, but that’s when I started playing soccer.  My passion for soccer has grown exponentially over the years for many reasons.  I learned to be a team player and the value of integrity.  I developed and maintained life-long friendships.  I learned that my passion for the sport is fuel for my competitive drive.  I learned to be a leader.  And, I learned that soccer, plain and simple, is a great stress-reliever.  Soccer has catapulted me through my elementary, middle, and high school years, and it just makes sense to continue my evolution in college playing soccer while earning my degree.

I have so much to offer a team starting with my growth-mindset which means I’m coachable.   I know that I can get better every day, and I have the drive to do so.  I am not afraid of hard work!  I am also a consistent player who works to maintain that consistency.  And, the leader in me makes me a force not only on the field but off the field as well.

While soccer is a passion, another passion of mine is helping others.  One of my goals is to pursue an undergraduate degree that will get me closer to a job in the medical field so I can do just that--help people.  I also want to travel the world to help and support others
