Parker Gladhill '24 Recruiting Profile

Hey there! My name is Parker Gladhill and I’m glad you dropped by! 

I am a 2024 senior at Norman North and am currently trying out lots of new things! This year, I will be a Chair for our videography and media team that's in charge of filming all school events. This has stemmed from my love for taking pictures and sharing them with people and I am hoping to follow this passion into college as well. Academically, I enjoy taking classes that challenge me and am getting a head start on college courses this year. I am very serious about maintaining a strong work ethic and discipline when it comes to the classroom, as I hold myself to a high standard off the court as well. I am a leader within my school and recognize good leaders must contribute greatness to help inspire their peers to do the same. I believe this starts in the classroom and when among the student body. 

Athletically, I represent my school by playing volleyball and running track. I am a 4 year varsity starter in the middle and have added captain to my duties this year. Being selected as a captain is an opportunity that I have been thrilled to take in stride. Outside of volleyball, I run in the 100m hurdles, 300m hurdles, 4x100 relay, 4x200 relay, and occasionally the 4x400 relay (If I’m unlucky, ha!). I played competitive soccer before finding my obsession for the game of volleyball. Since I was young, I’ve always been highly competitive, with an insatiable need to win. I’m sure having a younger brother and athletic family helped with that :)

I’m on the hunt for a college that’s going to be my home. I place high value on relationships, so a program that follows those beliefs is very important. I’m looking to push myself to my fullest potential and am looking for a coach to recognize that in me to help me get there. Looking forward to what the future might bring for me!
