Todd Athey '14 Recruiting Profile

Dear Mr. Miller,

          It all started on the the diamond of a T-ball field when I was 5 years old.  Instantly, I fell in love with sports and I continued to grow fundamentally and emotionally.   I was ready for something new.  As soon as I entered the fifth grade, I knew I wanted to try football.  It turned out, I wasn't half bad for a first timer and then again I instanly fell in love with  a sport but, this time I knew it was what I wanted to do with my life.

          I also, in 7th grade started to play basketball which I continue to play.  As I got older, I began to realize that I am a natural born athlete and a lot of room for improvement. It is currently basketball season and I am playing small forward as the only junior in the starting line-up.  I will be playing baseball again in the spring where I am capable of playing all positions but, normally play pitcher or center field.  Then, football season follows,  my favortive!  I play quarter-back and I am also a very skilled wide-out receiver.   I am currently 6'3" and weigh 184 lbs.  I have been going to the weight room and I recently bench pressed a max of 200 lbs, squatted a max of 365, and ran a 40 time of 4.8 after recovering from my broken arm from last football season.

          Now my goal is to be the best student athlete that I can.  I really want to be able to go from highscool and into college and continue to play sports while I further my education.  I am looking forward to talking with you more.

                                                                                                                    Sincerely,

                                                                                                                                           Todd Athey
