Miles Slater '19 Recruiting Profile

I have loved basketball for as long as I can remember.  I was six years old and in the first grade when my family moved from Southern California to Oklahoma.  As a new student in a strange (small) town I had difficulty making friends, but putting a ball through a hoop is universal. Playing basketball during recess disintegrated the barrier between me and my fellow classmates. Thus, my love for the game began. 

As years passed my dedication for the sport exponentially grew. I experienced great success at every level of play, and by the time I was a freshman in high school, I was promoted to the varsity team.  Although I was the team's youngest player, I contributed to its success. I am a sophomore in high school now and a starting varsity player.  I am excited about the opportunities this season will bring my team and I.

I would love to play basketball on a collegiate level.  I am a self motivated young man with very clear and passionate goals.  I work at my craft everyday, I do not have off days.  I will continue to work hard and live out my dreams.  I am a natural born leader but I have no problem following if the direction will lead me to my goals.
