Harper Johnson '20 Recruiting Profile

One thing that I have always hesitated in answering is the common question of "What position do you play?" Since I first began playing for my club team I have played every position from goalie to striker, and continue to mix it up on the field.  I truly believe soccer is a team sport, and I try to prove this every game by stepping up and playing any position that helps my team succeed.  It's fun finding new ways to apply my speed, technical and tactical abilities, no matter what position I'm playing.

I first learned to push myself in school by taking hard classes and working to get good grades.  I'm now using this internal mindset to constantly increase my skill, and creating a higher standard for myself. I do this in club by playing with girls at least one year older than me so that I am surrounding myself with other good players.  In high school, I worked to become a starting freshman on varsity. I want to continue to push myself throughout college by attending a school with great academics and athletics that will challenge me and help me achieve my personal goals and standards.
