Genesis Long ‘18 Recruiting Profile

Personal Statement

Playing in the Final Four at Lakeland Center in Lakeland, FL Monday February 26, 2018 at 10:00 a.m. est.-Paxton High School. 

I'm a great leader on and off the court. I’m a two sport athlete, I play softball and basketball. I’ve always been involved in sports. I started playing at the age of four and haven’t stopped since.

I’m a hard worker on the court but also in the classroom. I dual enroll full-time at Northwest Florida State College and will graduate in May 2018 with my AA Degree.  I hope to either go into Athletic Training or Exercise Science with a possibility of entering a Physical Therapy Program later.
