Ricardo Henson '18 Recruiting Profile

I am a 6’1 185lb Varsity Starter in the positions of middle Linebacker and Blocking back for Essex High School in Tappahannock, VA. My 40yd dash is timed at 4.56 and I am currently working to improve my speed. It is a dream of mine to play college football and would love an opportunity to do so. In order to accomplish the goal of playing college football I show the coaches my commitment by arriving early for practice and striving to give more than I have during practice as well as completing my studies. I am currently focused on raising my GPA to have the opportunity to attend a college that will enhance my academics. I am also preparing to take my SAT and the ACT this coming Spring with hopes of bettering my chances of a college choosing me as a student.

My family financial situation requires federal aid and grants to support me during my college years, therefore I am looking for a university that would afford me the opportunity to obtain my degree in Criminal Justice as well as allow me to play college football.
