Hi, my name is Zoey DeClue, and I am an incoming freshman with a goal of playing college soccer someday. Soccer has always been my favorite sport, and I love competing, improving, and being part of a team.

Something that makes me unique is that I used to be a competitive gymnast before I decided to focus completely on soccer. Gymnastics taught me a lot about hard work, discipline, balance, flexibility, and never giving up when things get difficult. Even though it was hard to leave gymnastics, I knew soccer was what I wanted to pursue, so I committed all of my time and effort to becoming the best soccer player I can be.

My biggest goal is to continue developing as a player throughout high school and earn the opportunity to play soccer at the college level. I know that reaching that goal will take a lot of hard work, and I am excited to keep learning and challenging myself every day.

When I think about college, I am looking for a school where I can be successful both on the field and in the classroom. I want to be part of a program with coaches who push their players to improve, teammates who support each other, and a team culture that feels like a family.

I believe I can help a college program by bringing a strong work ethic, a positive attitude, and a willingness to learn. I am very competitive and always give my best effort, whether it's at practice, training on my own, or during games. I am coachable, I love being part of a team, and I am always looking for ways to improve.

Most of all, I love soccer and am excited to see how far it can take me. I am ready to work hard, continue growing as a player, and help my team succeed however I can.
