Sam Ducksworth '23 Recruiting Profile

I’m a 6’2 Point Guard, who has a great feel for the game. I play with a level of physicality that most guards don’t, I take pride in playing defense and playmaking. My high basketball IQ allows me to play the game and adapt to any situation by taking advantage of my opponent's weaknesses. I'm very coachable, self-motivated, competitive, and humble. I prioritize team success over personal objectives and am a team player at heart. Since I started playing basketball in the fifth grade, I have been in love with the game and have always aspired to play collegiate basketball. I have excelled in several areas thanks to my dedication and diligence. I am a leader both on and off the court. I volunteer and assist with youth small-sided basketball. I'm a hardworking individual who accomplished a lot in my four years of high school, both academically and athletically. For example, I earned multiple leadership awards in Avid I also participated in the leadership club for two years. I earned two regional championships, two PCAC championships, three district championships, two state appearances, and two defensive Players of the Year award. In the classroom, I want to expand my knowledge by discovering new things that interest me and will help me in the long run.

I want to attend college to pursue my dream of studying exercise science so that I can become a physical therapist and play basketball at the next level.
