Nicolas Palangio ‘21 Recruiting Profile

Personal Statement

Hey, I’m Nick Palangio. I always strive to do my best and improve in the classroom and on the field.  My goal has always been to be the best and to play at the highest level. I always want to keep improving and I am a player that accepts feedback and constructive criticism very well. Team success is first for me and I want to win every trophy and achieve as much as possible. In terms of my character, I’m someone who never gives up and is willing to put myself on the line for my team. I also believe that in order for a team to be successful everyone needs to have each other’s back so, I like to always be there for my teammates and support them. One of the big challenges that I face well is adversity. Adversity actually pushes me to play better and doesn’t effect me in a negative way. I also don’t have trouble performing in big games and these high pressure games push me as well. I always try to reflect and analyze my own game so, I can tell myself and take notes on what I need to improve upon when I train on my own. One of the quotes I live by that Lionel Messi said is, “My ambition is to always get better and better.”
