Zachary Brashear '12 Recruiting Profile

Hi i'm Zach Brashear,
I weigh 170 pounds, and I am 5 feet and 11 inches tall with outstanding quickness and impeccable defensive abilities not allowing the person I am guarding to be able to score easily. I have played at elite levels my whole life in basketball. I have played for competitive summer AAU teams, that have played in tournaments all over the U.S. and also as a freshmen I played junior varsity and started and was awarded captain of the team, due to my hard work and drive to win, I wanted to win every drill to make my team mates better. we competed in every game and we won our conference. as a sophomore I played on the varsity team and came off the bench, my junior year I started varsity as a point guard and was awarded captain and 2nd team all conference. Our varsity had a loosing record 3 years prior to my junior year and as a captain I wanted to make sure we worked hard and had a winning record by the end of the season. We went 11-10. As a junior I led the team in points averaging 12 points a game, also adding a 30 point game to lead my team to victory in a close game, I was second in a assists with 5 to 6 per game, I didn't have a problem being inside with the big men getting rebounds with 4 per game. With experience of being a captain of a team, I can offer my leadership to a team and being able to push my team mates to their full potential so the team can be at their full potential. Also having such a hard drive to win in everything I compete in, I can offer my leadership by showing my team mates how to work hard. As a student-athlete I would like to go to a college where I can put myself in the right position to be successful after college as well as being successful athlete in college. As a desired major I have narrowed my options down to being in either sports management or business. As a student-athlete my goals are to be able to lead my team to be as successful as possible as well as learn life lessons that will help me beyond college.
