Matthew Herzog '24 Recruiting Profile

**Offer from University of Puget Sound**

Since achieving the position as the starting football kicker on my high school team, my goal has been to foray this role into becoming the starting kicker/punter on a collegiate football team. My dedication to bettering myself both on and off the field is seen daily from frequenting the gym at least 4 days per week, my weekly work with my kicking coach both during the season and during the off season, and through my dedication in the classroom. With the significant number of high school football players trying to play at the college level, it can be hard to differentiate yourself.  However, I find that my dedication to my fitness, health, and academics put me in the highest level of high school athletes competing for the limited spots available on a college football team.  I look forward to having the opportunity to use my athletic and mental prowess to better both myself and my future college football team.
