3 QUESTIONS FOR LUCK

Biggest soccer influences and why?

"My buddy Zach Kilwein, my club coach JT and Lionel Messi. Although Zach and JT are probably a little better than Messi, all three of them have had an amazing intuitive knowledge of the game. It seems like they always know exactly what and how to do what they need to do to help the team out."

Do you have an idol or hero?

"My dad and my brother. They both have a positive and selfless approach towards life that always makes things more fun."

Why Yale?

"The chance to grow and learn as a person and as a soccer player at a university and program like Yale is limitless, making it an incredible opportunity. On top of that, the atmosphere surrounding Yale seems totally genuine and open."

Coach Stannard On Luck: "Addison brings an incredible athletic pedigree to Yale.  He has been in a good environment his entire life and we think he will blossom to another level when he is challenged even more by the daily competitiveness and high achieving culture we are creating within Yale Soccer.  Addison is a competitor but also brings a good personality and quiet leadership skills.  He is good with both feet, he has scored and assisted on a TON of goals in his youth career and has the potential to play in just about any position on the field."
