Joseph Cain '26 Recruiting Profile

I didn't get to experience playing football as a kid, but when I first stepped on the field with my team, I knew that I wanted to play this sport at the college level. 

Due to my size and strength, I was brought up to varsity in my sophomore year. I am a true team player and love to dominate the pull plays. I will gladly make space for the play, as shown by my teammates' successful stats. If you need a pancake to make the play, I'm your guy.  I commit to studying the plays and working on my skills to help advance my team. In my sophomore and junior years, we made it to the playoffs. I was also nominated as an honorable mention as an offensive lineman. In addition to football, I am a varsity track and field member - qualifying for the shot put event in my sophomore year. I am also a varsity wrestler and earned the top spot in the 2025 Saginaw County's Individual Invitational in the 285 weight class.

My commitment to studying is also reflected in the classroom. I maintain a high GPA, currently 4.0, and am consistently on the honor roll. I also sing with our school Concert Choir and volunteer at recruitment activities around our campus. I am self-sufficient and manage my time and commitments in a high school living away from home.

I want to attend a college where I can be challenged in the classroom and on the field. I am looking for an environment where dedication to your team and lifting each other up on and off the field are priorities. I am open to all options and hope to find the right match for my academic and athletic skills. I look forward to using my skills to help my team on the field and my community off the field.
