Jordan Bish '19 Recruiting Profile

My name is Jordan Bish and at 16 years old,  I am a 6 1”,  215 lb defensive end / defensive tackle from Toronto, Ontario, Canada..   I have a 3.4 GPA and plan to write the SAT and ACT exams soon.  

I have started on the Lorne Park High School junior varsity team for 2 years and will be a starter on the varsity team this fall.  I have also played 9 seasons (spring provincial travel and fall house league) with the Oakville Titans, beginning as a PeeWee at age 11.   On both teams, I have played a variety of positions including center, tight end, running back, quarterback and have settled onto the defensive team for the last 2 years.     Having played several different positions on the offensive team allows me to better read my opponents and the field in general.    I am a committed player who always arrives early for practices or for the team bus to go to games.   On the field, I demonstrate good sportsmanship to both my teammates and the opposing team players, helping them up after plays, congratulating them on a good play and more.   I have been a team captain for both the Oakville Titans and the Lorne Park Spartans.   It is my dream to play football in college and make a positive impact on that team to win a championship.

My training happens both on and off the field.   I have been working with a personal trainer for 2 years to build my strength and speed.   Currently, I am benching 180lbs, squatting 250lbs, with a vertical jump of 24” and a 40 yard dash speed of 5.5s.

I am looking for an institution where I can find the right balance between the classroom and the field.   Ideally, I would like to attend a university with an outstanding academic reputation in the health sciences.   Ideally, my athletic environment would be one where I could make an immediate and positive impact on the team.
