Nick Rodriguez '18 Recruiting Profile

One of the highlights of my high school basketball career was playing in my first holiday tournament and being selected as one of the tournament All-Stars.  My love for basketball started in fifth grade playing  for the town’s basketball team, the first few years,  I learned the basics of the game, in my final year of play for the town’s basketball team, the team was coached by a new coach with a different coaching philosophy and style of play which the team responded well to.   We went from a team that had three losing seasons, to a team with a 17 and 1 record,  which resulted in the team winning  the Divisional Championship for the league.  It was then that I began to realize the importance of hard work, individual and team commitment  and the role these attributes play in sports and life.  Since then I have dedicated myself on the court, in the gym, and in the classroom to making my goal of playing at the college level attainable.

I am looking for program that would be a good fit for me as a student athlete.   My work ethic, determination, leadership skills and willingness to learn and become a better player and person are attributes that will make a positive contribution on your program.
