Gerald Tucker '21 Recruiting Profile

Hello Coach!  My name is Gerald Tucker. I have been running track since I was 8 years old. It has always been a passion of mine and I find my best moments in life are connected to track. 

My life goal is to become a Cardiothoracic surgeon and dedicate my life to serving sick patients and changing their lives. To achieve this I know that I must take my education very seriously.  I found that I can use my gift and love for track to help me achieve this lifetime goal. Starting with my college choice. 

Personally, I believe that I would fit in well with a team that is encouraging, open, determined, and full of runners who love to run! I am very open to teamwork and helping others. I must admit it was very hard for me when I was younger to work in groups because I am independent by nature.  Consequently, I know now that when you surround yourself with people who have the same goal and will fight with you to achieve that goal, the process becomes much easier.  I desire to be somewhere where I will be pushed and made to work harder than I ever have at my craft. Thank you for taking your tie to read a little bit about me and I hope to be in contact soon!
