Robert Corrado '19 Recruiting Profile

Throughout my life I've always made it a goal to grow as a person in everything I do, whether it's through academics, athletics, or working for my family's catering business. I've shown I can challenge myself academically as I am enrolled in two AP classes this year as well as one honors class while still maintaining a 3.6 GPA throughout my first half of high school.  I have expressed a high level of coachability and adaptability through being changed from tackle to guard this offseason and excelling at my new position.  My coachability is especially useful as I have had months of one on one training by Cory Tucker, a graduate of Slippery Rock University, who then went on to be signed by the Green Bay Packers as well as the Cleveland Browns, Cory also has experience in the Canadian football league and is currently the offensive line coach of Kent State University.  When not training with Cory I keep to a rigorous training schedule, during the offseason I train at least three times a week at Strength Fitness and Speed a training facility with alumni including Penn State commit Lamont Wade and West Virginia commit James Gmiter.  I do this personal training all while maintaining a near perfect attendance of offseason workouts from lifting in January to camp in August.  During the season I will often come in to lift before school starts many times arriving two hours before the first class.  I've built up this work ethic since a young age by working in  my parent's catering business,  working in the business since my childhood has allowed me to appreciate the hard work my parents have invested in this decade old business.  Though I may have other specific goals everything returns to an over-arcing theme of becoming a better person all the time
