Colton Dinsdale '16 Recruiting Profile

I am a five sport (football, basketball, soccer, track, baseball) athlete who has the dedication and drive to play at the collegiate level after high school. My strengths, dedication and determination is what makes me different from other recruits. I have been starting varsity football, basketball, soccer, and track since my freshman year. So hard work isn't a problem for me. Along with my freshman year, I was rewarded "Freshman of the Year" in the state of Iowa on Iowapreps.com. I'm also a strong student and am willing to push myself as hard in the classroom as well as on the field. An example of that would be that I’m a member of the National Honor Society. I am a very humbled athlete who just wants to win and has the competitive edge to do that! Also, I am more of a team player rather than an individual player. An example of that would be switching from slot receiver to fullback my sophomore to junior year for the best of the team, my running back who followed me that season rushed for over 2400 yards. With that being said, my team and I received the Runner-up Trophy in the state championship game. Also, another example would be basketball this year. I didn't have much of the stats for scoring, but I was the defensive stopper. That means I stop the best player on the opposing team from scoring anywhere close to their average points per game. With that being said we were basketball state champions this year along with runner-ups in football!
