Austin Torma '15 Recruiting Profile

88 tackles, 6 sacks, 4 forced fumbles and 2 touchdowns!

My ultimate dream is to go Pro in the NBA or NFL. However, realistically I know my education comes first. I dream of going to a 4 year college or university. I dream of playing collegiate sports. I want to study architecture because I excel in math and art. My second choice would be to study physical therapy (sports medicine) so I can continue to be involved in sports for the rest of my life.

I have been playing football since I was seven years old. I get better every year and I LOVE the game. I have played every position on the offensive line in my career. I have been a Kicker as well. But, ultimately, I would love to be a tight end. My Junior and Senior year of high school, I had the opportunity to play Middle Line Backer and Tight End. I am a play maker. Whether it's tipping the pass, forcing the fumble or recovering the fumble, I am there! 

I have played basketball since I was 9 years old. We had the most generous coach who volunteered every year.He didn't have any children playing but, taught us all the fundamentals. I played Boys and Girls Club basketball as well. I began high school basketball as a Freshman and have fallen in love with the game. I love competition. I love to get better. I love to win.  I most recently made MVP my Sophomore year on the JV team. I am very competitive. I am passionate about the game. I am my hardest critic. I know when I do my best and I know when I can do better. I always feel I could have done better and I strive to do that in every single game.

My school work always comes first. It is always a priority and I know this will have to continue. The ultimate goal for me would be to get a college education while playing one of the games I love. If I did not make the Pros, which I know will be extremely hard to do, I will be a well educated adult and be able to have job that I enjoy doing. I want to be successful, kind, happy human being that contributes to our American society. And, if I can do that and play sports, that would make me even happier.
