Santos Benitez '22 Recruiting Profile

My freshman year I was told that I was not fast enough or big enough to play at the high school level. I used that as my motivation to work harder in the gym, classroom, and on the field to prove the doubters wrong.

I went from not starting my freshman year to becoming a varsity starter my sophomore year. I accomplished All-District 1^st team defensive end and led my team in tackles during my sophomore season. I have learned that hard work, dedication, leadership, and teamwork pays off from these last two seasons. I am hoping to find a program that will push me academically and athletically to help me better my future. I believe that I can make a difference in your program because I have the drive, consistency, and want to become a future leader in your program. As a three-sport athlete and All-District finalist, I believe I have what it takes to become part of your team.
