Daniel Turcan '23 Recruiting Profile

I was introduced to this beautiful sport during my freshman year of high school when I was a 5'10" 260 LBS monster.  During my sophomore and junior years, I gained 30 lbs of muscle and lost 60 lbs of fat. I became a quickness demon into my senior year. I like the violence and the hardships that come with football and I hope to play it further on another level. 

I was a 2-year starter on Varsity and JV during 2022-2023 and a 2-year starter on the Froshmore (Freshmen and Sophomores) team as an Offensive Lineman, weighing 270 lbs coming into 2020. 

I was named All-Region DE/DT but was very close to being named an HM All-State Athlete in the 2023 season since I got switched positions multiple times for the sake of the team. I started as a Middle Linebacker/Outside Linebacker but got switched to a Defensive End because the D-Line needed my power and strength as our team faced big-man shortages. Then I had to step up to play Defensive Tackle as many of our D-Line got injured for the whole 2023 season.

My football journey started 5 years ago (as a Running Back) at Liberty High School, and wish to continue playing this beautiful sport on a higher level while continuing my studies at my dream university. I believe in self-improvement and the athlete mindset and am not scared to do greatness. 

4 reasons I am a good football player:

1. Very Coachable

2. Will not give up

3. Would sacrifice anything for the team

4. I'm good at dominating against bigger players

Ideals:

Self-improvement every second. 

Win TOGETHER or not at all. 

Determined to be great.
