Andrew Roach '25 Recruiting Profile

I am a 5’8, 220lb kicker at Lincoln-Way Central High School in New Lenox, Illinois. I have a 100% in-game percentage with 44/44 point after touchdown (PAT) opportunities and 1 true field goal opportunity at 30 yards. My conditioning stats are: 375lb squat max, 140lb push press, 150lb hang clean, and a 195lb bench press. Some of my speed times are a 4.72 pro agility and a 1.20 10-yard fly. An additional number I have is a 22.8 vertical. In the classroom, I have a 3.62 GPA. My schedule for the 2021-2022 school year was Honors Biology, Honors English 1, and Honors Algebra 1 as well as AP Human Geography and Spanish 2. For the upcoming 2022-2023 year, I will be enrolled in Honors Geometry Honors English 2, Chemistry and AP U.S History. With the space in my schedule to choose two electives, I will develop life skills through auto mechanics/small machines and Foods/International Foods.

The colleges I am interested in are known for tradition and excellence. I am looking into colleges in areas such as: Indiana, Tennessee, Kentucky, Texas, Alabama, as well as other areas in the South. I hope to attend a good agriculture school and play for the football program. I dream of attending and playing at BIG 10 schools, SEC, PAC 12, or ACC, but I also hope to attend and play at some Division 2 schools as well. The most ideal college environment would be one that will challenge me both academically and athletically to strive to reach my full potential.  A couple things I love from my high school football team that I hope to find in a college team is family. Being able to count on each other and be yourself around each other is one key thing that seems to make a football teamwork work like a well-oiled machine.

A few things I would like a coach to know about me is that I will always be on time, and I am fully prepared for practice. I am very coachable and will take criticism to improve in the next rep. I am reliable, loyal, and respectful of my teammates and coaches. Finally, I am hard working and will practice until I get a kick or motion down perfect.
