Tucker Robertson '17 Recruiting Profile

   My name is Tucker Robertson. I'm 17 and currently a Junior at Chilhowie High School in Chilhowie, VA. I love the game of basketball and have played competitively since second grade. I'm currently co-captain on our high school team and play the position of shooting guard. I was inspired by my brother because he played AAU and I wanted to also. My favorite college player was Tyler Hansbrough. He is really talented and I like his leadership.

   I realize there is more to basketball than just being athletic. You have to know the game and be smarter than the other players. You must be a team player, be coachable, and have academic ability as well as athleticism. I have all of these qualities and hope they will ensure that I my basketball career won't be over when I graduate from high school. My goal is to play in college somewhere relatively close to Virginia and to major in Physical or Occupational Therapy.
