Nicholas Powell '15 Recruiting Profile

 I am a Christian with many talents the Lord has blessed me with.  My goal is to get my degree in criminology or criminal justice.  After I complete my BA in college I would like to enter into the FBI Academy or go on to get a masters degree.  I love to play soccer and I have been playing soccer since I was 5 years old.  Each game I strive and feel I have improved in my game.  For my varsity high school team I have been a starter since 9th grade and I have made the all-star team in my 10th and 11th grade years.   I play on a travel soccer team outside of school.  We have played in many different tournaments and leagues.  In 2012 our team made nationals in Orlando Fl were we placed 3rd in the nation.  Besides soccer I also play basketball and run track for my high school.  Currently I am the caption of the school track team and I hold the record for the 800 meter at my school.  In basketball this school year I lead the team in the most points.  I have also played lacross for Salisbury Lacross Club.  I am very passionate about my faith, my sports, and how God can use me to inspirer others.  I have determination and a strong will to not quit and to push forward in the face of turmoil and obstacles.  I have a desire to learn and grow in my sports and in my knowledge.  You probably hear these qualities from other students and athletes but this is different because "I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me" Phillipians 4:13.  I am active in my church, helping on the bus routes and in Sunday school classes.  In the summers I am a junior camp counselor for the Summer Fun program at my church.  I have achieved Star in the Boy Scouts of America.  As you have read I have many different interest and layers to myself that will assist me in my future endeavors.
