Damon Rivera '16 Recruiting Profile

Football has always been a passion of mine. I have a great love for this sport. I've been playing football since I was five years old. Playing this sport has taught me how to not give up whenever you're tired or down. Football has made me mentally strong, physically strong, and the coaches have taught me respect. My dream has always been to make it to the next level with my athletic ability. My goals are to be apart of a college team, keep on getting more and more knowledge from college coaches and perfecting my skill. My academic goal is to succeed at getting a degree in something I love to do, and that is working with sports and athletes.  I would achieve this by staying on top of all my work and not just getting by, and maintaining a 3.0 GPA or higher while in college. I'm a good candidate for college football teams because I'm very coachable, meaning that I am a good a listener and am willing to try different strategies that with enhance my skill.  I am also a hard worker that is determined to succeed, and I am team player, that will do what it takes to help out a team member that is struggling in the game.  Coaches can see my passion in every drill, play, and game that I participate in.
