Personal Statement
My Name is Nick Rella, #4, and I am currently a Senior at Morristown-Beard High School in New Jersey. I am committed to pursuing my goals of becoming a student-athlete at the highest possible collegiate level. I have played on the Varsity team as a starter since my Freshman year and I am fully aware of the sacrifice it takes to be a college athlete, and I am fully willing to dedicate myself to that goal. My positions consist of Running Back and Fullback on Offense. Last year, I scored 10 touchdowns and lead the team in rushing yards with an average of 120 yards per game along with 20 carries per game. On the defensive side of the ball, I recorded 2 interceptions this season and finished with 49 total tackles. During my Sophomore season I lead the team in total yards, having 1100+ rushing yards and scoring 12 rushing touchdowns. I strive to push myself and others around me whether it's on the field, in the weight-room, or in the class room. I have a 3.5 unweighted GPA in a very rigorous academic program including 3 honors level classes. I was also elected Captain by my fellow players and coaches to lead our team my senior season. My dream is to play college football and I am willing to work tirelessly to make this dream a reality.
