Marvitis DuPree '21 Recruiting Profile

The details of my life that have influenced me the most is my father being in the military. He was in the Army and it was hard to deal with him being away a lot it made me have to become a little more mature at a younger age. He taught me the discipline I needed for now and later on in life. I became interested in football as early as I can remember. I always wanted to play from kindergarten until 3rd grade but I couldn’t because I lived in Germany, stationed with the US Army,  where they didn’t offer it. I learned leadership and teamwork throughout playing football. My academic goals for high school are to get my grades to all A’s until I graduate. For college I’m striving to be an orthopedic physician and nutritionist . This football year, I figured out in the preseason that I had to get stronger and faster in order to have a huge impact as defensive end. I posses very good leadership skills however, I’m not afraid to follow. The discipline that was instilled in me allows me to have the ability to adapt to any situation.
