Jacob Johansen '27 Recruiting Profile

I started playing football in 5th grade. It was the first year I was allowed to play and I immediately loved it more than any other sport I had ever played. I have realized over the course of my football career that I don't want to play high school football and be done. I want to play throughout college and even the rest of my life. 

Football is the reason I train to become stronger and faster. The thought of being able to play football at collegiate level has driven me to make myself a better player in every aspect possible. I am a team leader that will push my team to work harder than any other team. If you are my coach I can promise I'll be a very coachable player and will be open to any advice you have for me.

In school, I maintain a very high GPA and am considered a role model student. I try to be active in the school by joining sports teams including the unified basketball team where I am a mentor and coach for kids with special needs that want to play basketball. I play a wide variety of sports besides football including baseball, floor hockey, and multiple basketball teams. Out of all these sports football is and always has been my favorite. 

I want to attend a college where I can competitively play football as well as get a good education that fits me. I strive to find the college that matches me the best and I am open to all options given in order to find the right one for me an my family. I am hoping that this will give me the opportunity I have always dreamed of. The opportunity to play football at some of the highest levels and making all my family and friends proud.
