Savion Gallion '19 Recruiting Profile

I first began playing basketball at the age of 5.  I grew to love the game where I consistently had the opportunity to challenge my limits to keep improving my skills.  I currently attend school at Thurgood Marshall Academy in Washington, DC and have played basketball for the school since the ninth grade.   My present goals are to earn the rights to be called an All-American athlete, Point-Guard of the Year, and an All-Conference athlete.  Additionally, I aspire to obtain a degree in business and finance where I plan to apply it to start my own company in the clothing industry.  I feel that I am a great prospect for college and would work hard to make myself and my teammates better.   In being a true student-athlete, I feel it is just as important to be successful in my scholastic endeavors.  What sets me apart from other recruits is my tenacity to be the best athlete in the country.  I carry the attitude of refusing to be outworked by any other prospect which entails many days as being the first one in the gym and last to leave.  My focus is to excel in all aspects of my life including basketball, school, and business endeavors.
