Amari Bartley '16 Recruiting Profile

I'm Amari Bartley. I am a 5'8, 170lbs running back/slot/cornerback from West Hartford, Connecticut. Although I am listed as a running back, I can play multiple positions, such as slot, kick/punt return man, cornerback, and safety. Football is very important to me, I've been playing since I've been in the 3rd grade. I was one of the 3 Sophmores to receive a varsity letter this past season on my team. I didn't start but got a good amount of minutes on the field for my Sophmore year, including scoring my first Varsity TD of many to come. It has always been not only a dream, but a goal to play high-level collegiate football. I am willing to commit to any college in the country, that puts faith in me with a scholarship. My athletic goals for my college career, aren't different from many others. Playing significant minutes as a freshman is 50/50. I want is to be a big part in helping my team win. I want to play somewhere that wins, and where the best players play, so that I will always have a chance to prove myself. Football is something I'd love to do past the college level, if I make the opportunity. If however, I'm fortunate enough to play past the collegiate level, I believe I would make a great return specialist and 3rd down back.
