Nathan Ballard '17 Recruiting Profile

My name is Nathan Ballard, I'm a 6'2, 230lb defensive end/tackle from Eastwood  H.S in El Paso Texas. My GPA is 3.4-3.5 and I plan on pursing a degree in kinesiology at the next level. I'm a Junior who strives to be a college athlete at a program that has a solid coaching staff, along with a positive learning atmosphere. With my senior year approaching (Class of 2017), I am currently working to make myself a better player by getting stronger and quicker.  I am also trying to perplex myself mentally by getting better grades and preparing to take SAT/ACT because I know without the proper grades college football will be that much more difficult to accomplish.  Although I strive to sign a letter of intent on national signing day with a college that will help me succeed on the playing field, my ultimate goal is to graduate from college. 

I look forward to hearing from all coaches, schools, and staff throughout the next year.
