Personal Statement
My name is Zack Taylor and I am currently enrolled at Shaler Area High School. Last year as a junior I started varsity on a 22-2 team, ranked as high as 3rd in the Commonwealth of PA. In this my senior season and as a second year starter and team captain, I led our squad to a 25-4 record, a WPIAL final four appearance and a run to the quarterfinals in the State playoffs. Some senior season stats: 2nd in scoring avg of 10.5; 1st in 3 pt fg% of 40%; 1st in assists per game; 2nd in steals per game and 1st in assist/to ratio of 2.57. Complete senior season stats can be found at maxpreps.com.
I am a 6'0'', 160 lbs. point/shooting guard. I have played basketball all of my life and have come to be a leader on the court through excellent instruction and years of practice. My greatest strength on the court is my knowledge of the game. I have continued to play and excel at a high level of basketball, so that it can provide me an education at a well-respected college. I plan to attend a school that has an urban or suburban setting. I see myself playing at a D2 or high academic D3 school.
