Jayden Alvarez '22 Recruiting Profile

Football has become a huge part of my life. Not only because I love the game, but it has been a main contributor to my work ethic, motivation and character as a person, teammate, friend, son and leader. I have only played football competitively for 3 years, but I have grown more than most athletes in that short time due to my passion and drive to continue to improve and dominate in any position I am placed in.  For my travel football league, I was asked to lose 30 pounds in 3 weeks.  This was a big challenge which showed me who I am and the dedication I have to myself, my team and my goals. I reached that goal by losing 35.6 pounds in the 3 weeks and the weight that was shed also allowed me to get off of the defensive line and run the ball. I ran the most yards and touchdowns on my team this past year. I not only built speed, stamina, I was proven to be a true leader and example for those that have goals that seem "impossible".  I believe I will be a great fit academically and athletically on the college level because I am determined to do great things for those that invest in me.  I am sure of this because I have invested in myself and I haven't been disappointed yet, and I am sure you won't be either. Truth be told, I struggled a bit with my grades in 8th grade, however, with the help of my family I will have private tutors and SAT prep put in place for all 4 years of high school. I will not fail. I can and will be what you are looking for.  I am a good person with a kind heart and a heavy tackle. I am ready to train for the next level and the next chapter of my life.
