Reed Sussman – Soccer – Haverford

Q: What do you look forward to next year?

A: I’m extremely excited to continue my soccer career. I’ve been extremely passionate about soccer since I was a tiny kid, and I’m eager to keep developing as a player and grow into a role where I can help the team succeed.  I visited one of their practices last year, and the team culture is very strong and it’s a great group of guys. Aside from soccer, I am looking forward to making new friends, having more independence, and trying to be present in the moment.

Lucas Blumenthal – Football – Washington University in St. Louis

Q: What did you do to get recruited?

A: I had a unique recruiting experience just because of how new I am to this sport, but staying open minded to any coach reaching out to me served me well. Social media plays a big part in recruiting and allows coaches and players to get in contact so easily, so building and maintaining relationships with those coaches also helped me in the recruiting process.
