Nicholas Oliveira '23 Recruiting Profile

I have wanted to play D1 football since 7th grade when the head coach talked to me about joining the football team. Ever since that day I have planned and worked hard to succeed in my plans. I know what it like to work hard. My coaches made it very clear that me being the biggest wasn't gonna secure me a spot on Varsity. Freshman year I was on the freshman team and learned as much as I could from the seniors to become like them. My freshman coaches told me that I would start Varsity my Junior year. That was all I needed to drive myself and push myself to start as a sophomore. All my hard work in the summer leading to my Sophomore year paid off. I started both sides of the ball as a LT and a DT. I will work as hard as possible anywhere I go to be a starter and make a difference in my team. My grades and hard work are what set me apart from other recruits in my class. If my hard work ends up paying off you'll see me on a college field dominating my competition.
