Elijah Henderson ‘22 Recruiting Profile

Personal Statement

I know I will contribute greatly to any basketball team because of my following feats, and unique traits. I started to develop a love for basketball watching my dad play and listening to stories of him playing for his college team. My Proudest feat has been playing for a varsity and junior varsity high school basketball team before I was even in high school. I've been trained by many coaches who all would agree that I am a very coachable player. On and off the court I am determined to get better and improve my game. My expectations of my self are very high and give me a good work ethic. I am very athletic and confident in my ability to outplay the person guarding me. As I play against greater competition and better teammates I always stay humble, even to lesser competition. Through my time playing I learned that you’re never 100% done growing as a player and I always try to learn new ways to be a better player. Basketball is very important to me and I commit to it year round. I am excited and looking forward to becoming part of a new team and continuing to be a greater player!
