About Cadence

How would you briefly describe your gameplay style?

I feel as if I play strong and with a defensive mindset that leads to opportunities for offense. I prioritize preventing the opponent from scoring by maintaining a solid spacing structure on the field, minimizing space, and efficiently regaining possession after opposing teams ball possession. I believe my speed/soccer IQ on the field along withaggressive mentality is an advantage as a defender.

Can you provide a brief description of your mentality or personality?

When on a field or court I don't hold back. I'm naturally aggressive and competitive in nature which is an advantage on the field and in the classroom. If I find something I'm not naturally good at, it becomes a personal goal to work as hard as I can until I get it right. My no quit attitude and nonstop personality gives me an edge above others.

Are you involved in any clubs, organizations, or have you received any non-sport awards?

Nominated and chosen for MTSU’s 2025 Class of True Blue 100 top Freshman in TN Straight A student in all honors/AP classes-A honor roll Finished in top 20 of class at end of 8th grade and current top 20 as a Freshman Young Life Fellowship of Christian Athletes Student Ambassador

What skills or qualities have you developed, such as leadership, teamwork, or community service?

I have received recognition from the TSSAA by winning the award in 2024 for excellence in sportsmanship, ethics, and integrity, demonstrating a commitment to respect and fairness with diverse competitors in my county and region while leading my team. I was named captain for my OneKnox club soccer team, allowing me to lead and work with various populations throughout my travel experiences.

Have you faced any significant challenges? If so, please describe.

This past year I rolled an ankle during a soccer match which had me sidelined for a couple weeks. I had to sit out during regionals for my HS basketball team. This was a first for me. This experience led me to learn how I could help/contribute to my team without being on the field/court. Having to sit out was a test on me mentally but I think in the long run made me even stronger as an athlete

What type of college are you looking for?

I'm looking for a 4 year college which supports its athletics on the field and in the classroom. I strive to perform my best in the classroom, knowing the importance of building a strong academic foundation now for my future education and career plans. To that end, I have attained a 4.5 GPA in my first semester in high school. I want to be a pre-med major for undergraduate degree.
