Braxton Berkshire '13 Recruiting Profile

As a sophmore in high school, I have proven to myself and the school that I am willing to achieve my goals. Ever since youth league football, I have told people that I wanted to go as far as i could in football. Many people always told me that it would never happen to me because no one from my school had ever went to play top of the line football. Ever since then I have been trying to prove them wrong as an athlete on the field and as a student in the classroom. The next two years is my last oppurtunity to show the people who didn't believe to believe that anything is possible.
Going into my junior year it will be the year to make a statement on the football field. Right now as a 6'2 and 200 pound linebacker this offseason is critical, to pack the weight, fix my skills, and learn more about the game. There is always more to learn you will never be perfect, there is room for improvement at any level of the game. I am a leader for the underclassmen and those in my grade because of the hardwork I put in all season. I am looking for a school that is successful in not only sports but the graduation rate because my education is the most important to me. My drive to play football in college is remarkable because I will accomplish the tasks needed to pursue my goals.
