About Maliyah

I am a Class of 2027 student-athlete graduating one year early. I am a versatile winger, forward, and midfielder competing in the Girls Academy Aspire with VA Rush GA Aspire 09. I am a dynamic attacking player who uses speed, technical ability, and soccer intelligence to create scoring opportunities and impact the game on both sides of the ball. My versatility allows me to play effectively on either wing, in the midfield, or as a forward, adapting to the needs of my team.

My strengths include pace in transition, 1v1 attacking, ball control in tight spaces, vision, and the ability to create chances for teammates while remaining a goal-scoring threat. I pride myself on my work ethic, coachability, and commitment to continuous improvement. I enjoy competing at a high level and embracing challenges that help me grow as both a player and a person.

Academically, I maintain a 3.53 GPA and understand the importance of balancing excellence in the classroom with excellence on the field. My goal is to attend a college where I can continue my athletic and academic development while contributing positively to a competitive team culture.

I am actively seeking opportunities to connect with college coaches and programs that value hardworking, versatile players who are committed to growth, leadership, and team success.
