Biography

As a Senior (2016)
The senior co-captain played primarily at outside midfield during his final season on East Hill, providing a valuable crossing ability in the offensive third and tenacity on the defensive end. Bialik appeared in 14 games, making nine starts and logging 674 minutes. Bialik attempted a season-high two shots against Dartmouth on Nov. 5 and finished the year with four shots and one shot on goal. 

As a Junior (2015)
Bialik missed four games early in the season due to injury but made his presence felt when he returned to the lineup, using his speed and tenacity in the midfield to be strong on both sides of the ball, creating offense and shutting down opponent opportunities. On a relatively young team, his experience and leadership on the field proved to be invaluable. He appeared in 13 contests, logging 60+ minutes on 10 occasions.

As a Sophomore (2014)
The transfer flourished in his first season on East Hill. Bialik was a force in the defensive midfield and one of the integral cogs in the squad’s record tying defensive performance on the year. He stepped right into a major role, as he started all 17 games and rarely left the pitch. He finished the year recording 1536 minutes played.

Before Cornell
Bialik was a first-team all-state selection as a junior at Wardlaw-Hartridge School before attending Rutgers as a freshman. A two-year captain in high school, Bialik was named first-team all-conference and all-prep school as a junior before competing for Match Fit Chelsea Academy of the U.S. Soccer Development Academy. Bialik played in 14 matches as a freshman for a Rutgers team that was 7-11-2 overall.

Personal
Zachary Eli Bialik is the son of David and Cindy Bialik. He has an older sister, Daria, who was a four year varsity soccer player at Drexel University from 2007-10.
