Samson Ogunade '23 Recruiting Profile

I'm a 6'5 small forward/ power forward at Bishop O'Connell High School. I am class of 2023. I've been playing basketball since I was 7 and ever since I touched a basketball I fell in love with the game. I played AAU for the Maryland Rockets from 6th-8th grade.  During AAU I learned to become a better basketball player and teammate. I learned in order to be successful you need to have a relationship with your teammates and basically form a family.  Any team I join I always try to build a relationship with everyone to become better. I'm a very coachable and will do anything coaches ask to make the team successful. For me personally I am strong, aggressive, and I have a good IQ of the game. My freshman year was a let down even though I made varsity. I didn't get a lot of playing time but any time I got out there I put my heart out with rebounding, defense, or taking charges. I do everything I can to make myself the best player. For me I have a mindset where I work hard to improve. I put my heart and soul into the game I love and I will do everything to make it to the top.

Academically I have a 4.06 GPA and I take all honors classes and an AP class. When I am older I would like to be in business or even start my own business one day. In college I will probably take a business major like sports management or accounting.
