Zach Hughes '16 Recruiting Profile

I am a good-sized and physical player for my respective positions at 6’1’’ and 190 pounds.  I play receiver and safety (I can play inside or outside receiver and have played  outside linebacker and quarterback in the past). I play both sides of the ball (along with special teams), and am known on the team as a vocal team leader with a high motor.  My goal is to be the hardest working player on our team.  I also prioritize toughness, both mental and physical.  I have never missed a high school game for injury. As a team this year, we were 11-2, District and Conference Champions, and advanced to the state quarterfinals.  

Though I have a goal to play college football, I also take my studies very seriously.  In the classroom, I finished this semester with a 4.78 weighted GPA and took the ACT for the first time this fall, with a score of 33.  A goal that I achieved this semester that corresponds to both the field and the classroom is achieving GPA which is higher than my 40-yard dash time!  I also play basketball in the winter and track in the spring.
