- 2016 Full Game
Personal Statement
I am a rising Senior, Student/Athlete who excels in the classroom ,on the court and the football field. I've been playing football since second grade which adds a mental toughness for basketball. I have a great work ethic, passion for the game and a very good rebounder. I am a attentive learner who is always willing to learn and excel every day. I proud myself about taking my teammates into consideration. The basketball team that I want to be part of is one where I can contribute to the team, become a better player and work together. Academically I want a College/University to offer an excellent engineering program, particularly mechanical engineering. College professors take an interest in their students education and who like what they do. After college I want to pursue my mechanical engineering degree towards a position building supermarkets. Currently I am interning with my father , Nicholas Reo, who is teaching me the fundamentals. My academics and basketball I take very seriously. My goal this year is to be inducted in the National Honor Society. Consistently I have been on the Honor Roll for the past four years, Honor classes and AP classes. Currently I have a 3.75 GPA.. Athletically I have a strong arm, quickness, in depth understanding, hindsight of the plays and most importantly COACHABLE. I have a high basketball IQ which lets me move in the right position and get in sync with my teamates. I weight train 3xs a week to gain muscular endurance which comes in handy to play hard to the last minute of the game.This will be the fourth year that I played High School Football and AAU Fall Basketball at the same time. Even though it was challenging, I welcomed it. The past three spring seasons I played for Garden State Warriors basketball and Warriors AAU travel baseball. Spring Basketball is my favorite time to play, all the competitive players come out which helps to raises the bar. I have attended Hoop Group Top 100 Academic Elite , Elite Camps at Allbright College in PA., Coach Wooten camps and Cabrini shootouts. I am always looking for ways to improve myself on and off the court. I believe I have what it takes to be a team player at the College level , while acquiring a great education. If you put in the hard work ALL DREAMS ARE ATTAINABLE.,,
