How to approach this coaching staff
Start with Josh Shapiro, the head coach. Harvard University carries a larger men's soccer staff, with 2 assistant coaches and one goalkeeper coach listed beside the head coach. On staffs this size recruiting is usually split, so address the head coach and include the assistant most likely to run recruiting.
As general context, NCAA Division I is the highest level of college soccer. D1 programs may offer athletic scholarships, and most D1 rosters are largely settled a year or more before a recruiting class enrolls. Harvard University ranks in the upper part of its division, so the staff has options; explain in one line why this school and this roster fit you, not just that you want to play college soccer.
Harvard University is a private mid sized school on an urban campus with about 7,601 undergraduates. At a mid sized school the men's soccer staff typically works with admissions but does not control it, so have your transcript ready when a coach asks. The acceptance rate is 4 percent, and the middle SAT range is 1510 to 1580, so include your grades and any test scores in the first message.
