Connor Giannini '16 Recruiting Profile

My name is Connor Giannini I am 5'9" and I attend Gonzaga Preparatory School in Spokane, Washington. I pride myself on being a well mannered and friendly to whomever I meet. I am very driven person with some rather large goals for my future involving aeronautical or mechanical engineering. Creating advance machines with new technology and materials has me excited for the road ahead of me.

My career as a track athlete has been going for seven years now. Through the years I have found my two best races to compete in are the 400m and 200m dash. I love both of these races because I feel an extra sense of accomplishment when I win or beat my personal record. When looking at my high school career specifically I have been competing at the varsity level all four years. I have been one of the team leaders for the past two years on our team from my ability to help and lead others as well has be a competitive athlete. Two years ago I was unfortunate enough to suffer a back injury, which took away my junior and senior football seasons. At this point in time my back is fully recovered. Without having to restrict myself in lifting and track workouts I plan to have a very good track season this year.
