Shawn West '19 Recruiting Profile

This is my 2nd year of playing football ever but that doesn't stop me from what I want to accomplish in the sport.  Since I am considered a rookie, I am somewhat a blank slate and have the ability to learn fairly quickly.  As a team, individual skill is necessary but playing as a team is what's most important because it takes the whole team to win. Some of my goals is to improve on my defensive skills and become a better leader for myself and my team.  Recently I have faced the difficulties of wearing a cast on my left hand due to a thumb tendon injury.  This hasn't stopped me from working out and keeping up with my team mates.  Academically I am a hands on learner and always have an open mind to learn more academically.  Within the past two years I have been able to bring up my GPA, working through a major family loss within the first two years of high school.
