DMFS (defense midfield forward soccer ;) )

Since about 5 years old I've been playing soccer. I've dabbled in basketball, football because of my dad, and even track. But soccer is the only sport I've stuck with until now. It has provided me with some of the greatest and also most devastating moments in my life. I always thought I was talented at soccer, for the most part my opposition was never as fast, big, or strong as me. I probably would have been pretty good if it wasn't for the position change and a bad injury to my back during my sophomore season. 

The highlight of my soccer career SO FAR was my junior season at Whitney Young. I played with some of the most talented players in the city which  eventually lead us to a city title. Although I didn't start that year I still played a good amount of time coming off the bench considering it was my first year on varsity, even got a couple of minutes in the championship game. 

I plan to go to Howard University next year where I am fully confident in my abilities to walk on and make the team. As soon as my college selection process is complete I will begin contacting the soccer coach at Howard to inform him of my intentions. Hopefully I will make the team and have just as much fun as I did playing for Whitney Young.
