Jeremiah Tolefree '21 Recruiting Profile

When I was at daycare, If a kid needed a push on a swing, and they couldn't do it, every kid on the playground would come running to me saying "Jeremiah push me!". If they wanted to go higher the kids would say " Faster! Faster! Faster, we need another master! ".  And every time I would step up and push them because they knew I could do it.  At daycare, I and the kids there played tag a lot. So in that game whoever gets tagged, they stayed tagged. I would be the last one so they would come after me. One would come running at me then, two, three kids were chasing after me. They got tired of running after me, and after that, the game was over.  And at that moment I had a thought it was me deciding that I was going to play football when I get older.  looking back that this I have always been someone that people came too when they needed help. In a Intense football game someone had to make a play, and I stepped up an made a play, with that play my teammates saw that and got motived. I am 16 now. I play football at Norman North HighSchool. My very first year as a Freshman I played varsity. It was humbling to be brought up to play with seniors, juniors, and sophomores. With that I had to learn quickly.  An awesome program that they have at North! 

In my life, getting an education is very important. Learning things so that I can grow and achieve is what I desire to do in life. I've been told "having an education and your grades right, you can go anywhere". Im looking for a college that can benefit me in the degree I choose, so I can have a foundation in a career that I can build, level up in that field. Same principle applies athletically in a football program. With my talents, and leadership skills, I know I have what it takes to play on your team!
