Owen Strandson '21 Recruiting Profile

I have always been an excellent student.  I had a rough year my sophomore year exposed to a lot of conflict at my mothers house.  I now live primarily with my dad and just got (6) A' and (1) B+ which are the grades I am used to getting.  I transferred to Manchester West HS and enrolled in ROTC and achieved the Cadet of the Month award in the first month in the program.   I am a hard worker and enjoy training, running and lifting to get myself in the best physical shape for three seasons of sports.  I also play football and am expecting to be the starting QB this fall as a senior and have played varsity and started at DB my junior season.  I excel at baseball and am very confident in the field at 3rd base and 1st base and also have pitched and played OF as well.  My goal is to find a program where I can work hard, train and be an asset to a team on the college level while also obtaining a solid education.  I think what makes me stand out is I love to work hard.  I run almost every day and am determined to be in the best shape when I step on the practice or game field.  I generally can run a 3 mile pace in the 6's and 4-5 miles in the low 7's.  It helps build my stamina and conditioning to do the agility and speed workouts harder.
