Andrew Bryson '12 Recruiting Profile

I am a 5'11" point guard/shooting guard from Nevada, Mo and will graduate in the 2012 class. I have played my first two years on the Nevada High School varsity team, starting my sophomore year. God and family are a priority in my life and Basketball is my passion. There is not a day that goes by that I'm not working on some aspect of my game or physical being. My dream is to take basketball as far as I can after high school. I am looking for an institution where I can find the right balance between the classroom and court. I would like to pursue a university or college with a great academic reputation, although at this point in time I have not narrowed down my specific major. Financial assistance will play a role in my decision making process. Although I live in Missouri, I am open to exploring schools across the country because my parents plan to move close to where ever I go to school. I currently hold a 3.8 GPA and will be taking the ACT soon. Ideally, my athletic environment would be one where I could make an immediate impact on the team. I feel I can offer leadership as I have with all my previous teams as a quarterback in football and a point guard. As a floor general, I feel one of my best attributes is court vision and I prefer the transition game over half court play. Although, if forced into half court play I feel I can orchestrate any offense and find the mismatch or 1st, 2nd or next option within the offense to score. I will strive to be a well rounded player offensively, defensively and scholastically.
