Lueth Continues to Play With Purpose
Playing soccer allows Freshman Midfielder Lueth Lueth to reach out to others.
"Soccer links me with a lot of friends. My best friends today were made through soccer," Lueth said.
Lueth, a native of the Republic of South Sudan, started playing soccer when he came over to America in the seventh grade. Growing up, Lueth enjoyed typical kid activities like playing tag with his friends.
Some of those friends and members of Lueth's family remain in his home country.
Lueth knows that they would support him if they saw him play.
"It would be special to my family to see me play. They would really proud of me," Lueth said.
Though people in Lueth's town did not grow up playing soccer, they still were able to watch it on television. Their favorite league to watch is the English Premier League.
There is still a possibility that Lueth's family and friends will get to see him play one day after he leaves Lyndon State College.
"Soccer will always be in me. When I graduate, I plan to play in a men's league, and return to be with my family," Lueth said.
