Toussaint Padgett ‘19 Recruiting Profile

Personal Statement

Hello, my name is Toussaint Padgett.  I have a strong passion for basketball which started at the age of 12.  I have been playing basketball for the past three years for Glen Burnie High and the Boy’s and Girl’s club.  While playing basketball for Glen Burnie in my Sophomore year I was moved up finishing the season with the varsity.  I’ve learned while playing basketball that I’m really successful with a high IQ for passing, finishing at the rim and playing defense.  My dad is the biggest influence on my life because he’s always telling me to give it 100 percent for everything that I do.  Through playing sports I’ve learned that I can do anything I put my mind to.  Secondly, I know that a good education is very important because you always need something to fall back on if sports don’t work.  So, my goal is the hopefully pursue my basketball career through college while building a successful background education wise.
