JT Harms is a current member of Crew SC Academy
DURHAM, N.C.—Duke men's soccer head coach John Kerr is excited to welcome a talented group of incoming freshmen to campus this fall. GoDuke.com will take the next couple of months to help fans get to know a little more about each of the players in advance of their arrival on campus.
First up is JT Harms – a goalkeeper who currently trains with Crew SC Academy. Top Drawer Soccer tabbed Harms as a four-star recruit and ranked him as the fifth-ranked goalkeeper nationally and the top keeper out of the Great Lakes region.
Harms joined Crew SC Academy for the 2018-19 season and started all 23 games, finishing with a .920 save percentage. He helped the club advanced to the Generation Adidas Semifinals in his first year and was a part of the Generation Adidas International MLS Elite Goalkeeper Program in Germany.
The Crew SC Academy Player of the Year was off to a solid start in his final season, starting all 11 games and stopping nearly 85 percent of the shots he faced. In both years he has been with the club, the Wisconsin native was invited to train with the first team.
Prior to joining Crew SC Academy he played with Shattuck-St. Mary's and was a part of the USYNT program, competing in various friendlies, training camps and other competitions.
An excellent student, Harms is currently ranked No. 1 in his high school class and is a member of the National Honor Society.
Here is a little more about JT.
GoDuke.com: Why did you choose Duke?
JT: I chose Duke because it was the perfect mix of academics and athletics. I fell in love with the campus on my visit. To top it off, I'm really excited to play with this group of boys.
GD: What is a fun fact about you?
JT: I earned my black belt in Tae Kwon Do when I was 11.
GD: What International Club do you follow?
JT: Liverpool FC #YNWA
GD: Who is your favorite international player and why?
JT: My favorite international player is Marc-Andre Ter Stegen. I think he is a complete goalkeeper who consistently performs at the highest level and can dictate a match
on both sides of the ball.
GD: Who is your favorite U.S. player and why?
JT: My favorite U.S. player is Zack Steffen. I have been able to work with him and watch his progression as a goalkeeper. I admire him both on and off the pitch.
GD: What is your first soccer memory?
JT: My first soccer memory is playing matches with my friends at recess in kindergarten.
GD: Meeting this person would leave you speechless?
JT: Alicia Keys
GD: What are the last three series or shows you've watched on Netflix?
JT: All-American, Narcos, The Office
GD: How are you continuing to work on your game while practicing social distancing?
JT: I've been able to workout and re-watch professional matches on TV at home (six feet away from everyone of course).
GD: At this moment, what would you choose as your hype or goal song?
JT: Bring Em Out by T.I.
GD: Most used app on our phone?
JT: Snapchat is without a doubt the most used app on my phone.
GD: Do you Tik Tok? Yea or nah?
JT: I dabble in Tik Tok. Good for a few dances, but nothing over the top.
GD: If you weren't playing soccer, what sport would you play?
JT: I would still be wresting or playing baseball.
