Matthew Connell '25 Recruiting Profile

I strongly believe that in order to get to the collegiate level of athletics, you need to excel in school first. Currently, I am in the top percent of my class and working hard to keep it that way throughout high school. I pride myself on volunteer work and helping out when it is needed. My character reflects those beliefs and I am proud of that fact. Playing college football has always been a dream of mine since I started playing in general. It started out in the backyard but it wasn’t until the 8th Grade where I decided to play organized football and I have loved every minute of it. Regardless of the time I started playing organized football, I have learned that I am capable of many things if I set goals and work towards them.
