Chloe Gabrielle Aquino U14 Lady Knights

loved soccer at 5 years old, she started playing in Buffalo, NY. After relocating to Ostrander, Ohio, Chloe played DYAA on a "rec" team at age 8. The following year at age 9 she started playing for The Delaware U10 Lady Knights Team.  At about 11 years old Chloe started training and playing soccer year round, she has missed sleepovers, parties, and just hanging out with friends for her love of the sport.......SOCCER. Chloe is a very technical and tactical player, she is a "playmaker", Chloe currently is one of the lead goal scorers on her team, The U14 Delaware Lady Knights, she also has the highest number of assists.

Chloe has been selected to the 1999 ODP District Team after attending 6 tryouts. She then went on to the next level and played in the ODP Festival tournament held in Dayton. Chloe plays offense for her team, during The Festival Tournament, she played defense, Chloe's skill and technique shined, even in an unfamiliar postion. As a result, Chloe was selected to the 1999 ODP State Training Pool. Chloe will start training in early June and will hopefully continue on to the next level with ODP.

Chloe is thankful for the kind words and constructive criticism from all the coaches, parents, teammates, referees and players from opposing teams that build her confidence and keep her motivated daily.
