Clairemont High School, Class of 2027

Hi, I’m Ellie Deleon from San Diego. I play center back for Legends FC San Diego ECNL, Clairemont High School, and the U17 Philippine Women’s National Team. I love leading the back line—organizing the defense, staying composed under pressure, and keeping my team connected.
While defense is my main role, I’ve also been a consistent scoring threat, with 20+ goals over the last two ECNL seasons and 9 goals as a freshman at Clairemont. Left-foot dominant but confident with both feet, I bring versatility and impact on both sides of the ball.
My efforts have led to opportunities with USYNT Regional Camp and ID Centers, features in Prep Soccer and Top Drawer Soccer, and my international call-up with the Philippine U17s, where I played an active role in qualifying for Asian Cup China 2026.
Off the field, I’m active in ASB, Eco Club, and three varsity sports (field hockey, soccer, beach volleyball) while maintaining a 4.25 GPA in honors courses. I’m driven to keep improving, stay consistent, and prepare for the next level of soccer.
