OWENCREED

Dear Coaching Staff,

I wanted to reach out about Owen Creed who is applying to your University. I’ve had the pleasure of coaching Owen for 2 years. I believe there are very few players that come along that impact a coach the way Owen has impacted me and our team. Owen, a 6’0” defensive center midfielder, was the identity of our squad. He is electric with the ball, has dynamic skills and the CAPTAIN. Owen comes from a tremendous family and is extremely coachable. He arrived early to every practice with a smile and his work rate is second to none. Owen would run half marathons just for fun. Our team was the ECNL-RL National Champion in 2026. This was due in large part to the leadership and play of Owen. He never came off the field and when we needed someone to step up in another position, we could easily move Owen to cover. He would cover so much ground for 90 minutes that every opposing coach would comment about him after the game. Furthermore, Owen has a 3.7 GPA and will be able to handle the academic rigors of college. Owen chose to play one year for Select Generation in Bournemouth England to enhance his soccer before starting college in 2027. He will thrive during his college years and will leave his future college in a better place than when he enters. I played Division 1 sports (Football at The University of Washington and club soccer there), and I constantly speak to our boys about what it takes to play and succeed at the next level. There is no doubt that Owen has the mindset, work ethic, academics, and skills to thrive in college.
