    IntenseKnowledgeableCares About AcademicsFitness Is ImportantIntense

    Now Michelle is INCREDIBLY KNOWLEDGEABLE ABOUT SOCCER, which is what drove me to play at DBU before she moved to Baylor (but multiple players have reached out saying same things I struggled with). she lacks a social/moral/compassionate side outside the field where she connects to players all around (not including her favorites - and YES, she’s plays favorites). I think truly my stem for disliking soccer was chasers form her culture she presented

    Cares About AcademicsCreates A Great Team CultureDedicated To PlayersDevelops Team Beyond The FieldEasy To Get Along With

    I had the most amazing experience with Paul Jobson. College soccer is a tough environment, and losing my dad right before playing made that transition even harder. Paul took me in and made sure I succeeded not just on the field, but in life beyond it. He genuinely cared about how I was developing through my grief while still pushing me to excel both athletically and academically. I am incredibly thankful for my time at Baylor and for the impact Paul had on my life.
