The path to a college program can look different for every recruit.
Each player faces a unique set of hurdles on his or her way to landing at a top program, and each comes up with a different set of criteria for the right college program.
Some players want to stay close to home, while others don’t mind. Some look for the right mix on and off the field, while others favor the game over the classroom. Take a look at what one recruit from upstate New York is doing during his search.

Class: 2014
A versatile defender who can slot in at just about any position along the back line, and can also pop up in the center of the midfield, Benjamin Geisler has a strong idea of what he wants in a college soccer program.
