John Gload '25 Recruiting Profile

I have learned about the importance of hard work and commitment from my parents.  Even though they have a lot of responsibilities, they are always there to support and encourage me.  They have taught me that if you want something, you need to work hard for it and never give up.

I knew football was for me the moment I saw and could understand it.  I was probably about five.   Ever since, I have been trying to learn everything I can about the game and build the skills I need to become the best player I can be.  I know football is a team sport.  I am a player who is always supporting and encouraging my teammates.   If they get better, we get better, and I get better.   I get along with many different types of people.  My list of unique and varied friends is evidence of that.

I am still exploring what I want to study in college.  My goal right now is to discover as much as I can about my strengths and interests and what would be a good fit for me.  I look forward to my future.
