Cole Semu '18 Recruiting Profile

I grew up in New Zealand playing rugby which was my first sport but after moving to the USA I tried football and it soon became my favorite sport.  I’ve been playing since I was 8 years old and my goal is to play at the college level and beyond if possible.  I am a 4 sport athlete but academics has always been a greater priority.  I understand the importance of a good education and I’ve always known I would go to college and follow the example of my older siblings.  My plan is to study engineering and I am taking Honors and AP classes now to prepare me for college. I am a member of the National Honors Society where we do community service and I'm also very involved in my church youth group and working towards my Eagle Scout Rank with the Boy Scouts of America.

I believe I would be a good fit for any college team athletically and academically. I am committed and coachable; I learn fast and have a deep understanding of the game. On the field I give 100% and try to lead by example.  When I’m not playing I study the game by watching game film, documentaries, training techniques and anything else that can improve my football knowledge.  I work hard both during the season and off season to get faster and stronger so I can keep improving and achieve my goal of playing football at the next level.
