Andrew Washington '20 Recruiting Profile

For anyone who has ever been passionate about being the best at something, whether it is athletics, music, art, theater or any number of other activities, I know it can be painful to come face to face with someone who is more talented, however talent means nothing when you do not have the heart or attitude to push that talent forward.

Tell coaches about your collegiate goals and aspirations--

My long term goal as an athlete would be to make it pro and play on a professional level or get my doctors degree in psychology. I have had a love for this game ever since I was five years old and have poured my blood, sweat and tears into this sport; however, it's just something about helping others and learning about the mind and why we as humans do the things we do, say the things we say, and see the things we see that infatuates me. I am interested in a school that challenges me and is constantly pushing me to be the best person I can be. I am also very interested in going to a school with a competitive atmosphere and environment. I love competition and I personally think it brings the best out of every athlete. Right now I am currently competing at a high school where favoriting is very very high and I am the under dog but, that dose not bother me because I am a very patient person and I believe all my hard work and dedication will pay off in the long run. Football will forever be a sport I love so I will take this one step at a time and get into a college first.

What makes you a good candidate for their team?--

As a person I am trust worthy, honest, and compassionate you can come to me for any and everything and I will give my full 100% to find a solution. As an athlete I am a leader, versatile, team player, and coach-able, whatever you teach me or tell me I will follow through. I am also a quick learner through repetition so I believe I can bring an abundance of growth to your team. I currently play both sides of the ball and can play anywhere if taught, I play RB,FB,Slot,OLB, and special teams.

What makes you different from other recruits in character, athletics, and academics?--

I am very selfless and always put others before me to make sure the team as a whole will succeed. My character is unmatched and I know not to let my emotions get the best of me but fuel me to play better and have a level head because if I mess up it messes up the whole game plan. Academic wise school has always come first, I can't count the nights I've stayed studying, making flash cards, and planning my future because I believe when you constantly see your dream or are reminded of it you have a higher chance of achieving that dream.
