Logan Richards '18 Recruiting Profile

    At the end of my freshman year, my family moved from a large school to a very tiny community.  The town of Oblong has a population of 600 people where everybody knows each other.  I was the backup quarterback to a kid who is an all-around athlete, very well known in this community.  This gave me the motivation to work hard in the weight room and on the field.  I knew I would get my chance.  My junior year we went to state playoffs, playing a team twice our size.  My family had scheduled a Disney World trip, but I skipped it to play the game.  We lost that game, but it taught me a lot about myself.  Finally, in my senior year, I have a chance to prove myself.  Oblong has not had a passing quarterback in almost 15 years.  I am confident in my abilities to see that happen.  

    I am a very competitive person that loves the game of football.  No matter where I am on the field I do my best to be positive for our team.   I do my best to represent my coach, my school, and our fans in a positive manner.   The game of football has taught me mental toughness, resilience, teamwork, and to be courageous.  Education is of utmost importance to me.  I want to make my family proud.  I want to make a difference.  Being able to play a sport I love would be a major perk.
