RayKwon McClenny '17 Recruiting Profile

    Hi, my name is RayKwon.  I have always aspired to work in law enforcement, either the K-9 force or FBI.  I strive to help others and with my career goals I am certain that I will attain those goals.  Currently I volunteer every summer with Autistic children for a local organization called F.A.C.T. , I have been doing so since 2014.  I guide, teach, play and befriend the kids and young adults at this summer camp.  I believe my time at F.A.C.T has helped to direct me with certainty of my career path.

    I have been playing sports since I was 5 years old.  I started with Football, basketball, baseball, karate, wrestling and track.   I have always been athletic and have spent the majority of my childhood focusing on being so.  Up until this past summer of 2015 football was a big piece of my heart, then I met my current track coach.  Although I had ran track in middle school and my sophomore year as well,  I had never truly loved it, then Coach Rose came into my life.  I learned that sometimes it just takes one person to truly inspire you and change your life's course and that is what my coach did for me.  I have fallen in love with Track and Field.  It is a feeling that is indescribable, but yet exhilarating.   I have every hope to continue on to the college level and build this love that I have.

    My academics up until this point in my life have been just average.  I have just been floating by (just being honest).  I realize that my academics are even more important then my athletics.  I have always had the impression it was the other way around.  See I just never applied myself, but now that I have been applying myself I realized my parents were right, and getting good grades feels even better then doing a good job on the field.  I enjoy learning and have promised myself that since I have waited so long I have to give my academics 200%.
