Taye Jackson '22 Recruiting Profile

Going to college is a goal of mine—my mom is a single mom and my hopes are that my athleticism would help take me to the next level of sports and help me further succeeding in my education. I make As and Bs in school, my mom and dad has always told me that I need to be smart on and off the court/track and field. I am currently preparing for my black belt test in Kung fu. This has been extra tough with my schedule getting busier, Kung fu twice a week, school work, basketball, track, and church. I believe these have all taught me self-discipline, improved my self esteem and strengthened the respect that I have for my peers and teachers.
