Interview

What makes you different?

My grades at school are very good and so are my soccer skills. I train twice a day – once with my team and once individual training. I love to play soccer and I am very persevering.

Why do you want to compete in college?

I want to win all awards and cups with my team. And to achieve great heights.

College goals

To have good marks, study what I like and be successful after my soccer career.

Soccer and life Goals?

My preference is to become a pro soccer player. Of course, not everything in life happens as you’ve plan it. So a great education in a US University will give me a flying start in life after sport.

Anything else we should know?

I like to go fishing, play the guitar and go out with friends.
