I'm Rafael Chaves de Moraes Leme, a Brazilian student-athlete playing football at Allegheny College. I grew up in São Paulo, Brazil, and moved to the United States to follow my goals of competing at the collegiate level. I mainly play Defensive Back, and my time here has consisted of adapting, learning, and improving every day within my environment. Moving to a different country and building my own path in American football taught me a lot, discipline, hard work, resilience, and, most importantly, staying humble. I’m excited for this next season at Allegheny and grateful for everyone who has supported me as I continue to grow both on and off the field!
