Terry McCord '20 Recruiting Profile

I am looking for a highly selective academic and athletic school. I would like to pursue a major in business or sports management and eventually become a general manager for a professional basketball or football team. I am looking for a college that is close to home so my family can visit me and come to my games. I would love to make an impact at the school, both academically and athletically. My love for the game of football really inspires me to become a great player. I have great leadership skills and will lead any team that I may play on. My college goals are to start and make an impact. My high school goals are to win the State Championship at Ford Field, earn a 4.0 GPA, get an IB diploma, and graduate at the top of my class.

I have learned a lot from football; particularly, hard work, teamwork, dedication, and sacrifice. This year I realized how hard and how much work it takes to turn around a program that has been in a hole for the past few years. I learned how much teamwork matters because if we work as a team, we will be successful. I also realized how much dedication it will take to turn around our football program. The most important thing is that I have to sacrifice a lot in order to achieve my goals and dreams. I have been working out and training for the moments I have been dreaming of. I know I’m going to have to work a lot harder and train harder to achieve those goals.
