Mason Reuter '20 Recruiting Profile

Thanks to my local Parks and Rec. department I was able to start playing football in third grade.  From the first time I played in a game I knew that football would be something big in my life.  Through playing football I have learned a lot about myself and learned some great characteristics.  I have learned that in life you will always get knocked down, but no matter how much you want to just stay there you have to get back up.  I also have learned a lot about leadership through football by helping my fellow teammates on and off the field.  I learned that I am a lot stronger than people give me credit for.  When I started playing I was susceptible to breaking out in tears when confronted.  Now I am able to take criticism and make it into a teaching moment.  I would like to end high school with a 3.5 GPA and have at least 30 college credits done by the time I graduate high school.  In college I wish to pursue a sports management degree and go into sports announcing.  Along with being in sports I am also an Eagle Scout with Boy Scout Troop 66 from Monticello, IA.
