Derek Kastella '17 Recruiting Profile

As a collegiate athlete, I wish to add a positive representation of the school on and off the court while furthering my education.  I feel that I have always set a standard of hard work and dedication for myself and those around me.  The game of basketball has been important to me my entire life.  I have learned lessons in victory and defeat.  Both benefiting my character. Most importantly, I have learned the value of hard work and sacrifice and what you can achieve by doing both.  I pride myself in being extremely coachable and being a student of the game.  My goal is to be a great addition to a competitive basketball team.  I will bring leadership, competitive nature, athleticism, discipline, and dedication to your program.
