Joheli Mendoza '24 Recruiting Profile

Basketball has been a part of my life since I was around 11 years old. For the first three years of my playing career, I was in the little leagues, but after I entered middle school, I was allowed to play with my classmates in school. I have been playing on the Varsity team since my freshman year of high school, and I am currently a junior. I recently joined two separate AAU teams last summer.

I have good shooting range, solid defensive play, ball handling skills, and most importantly, I work well with others. As one of the team's leaders, I'm always willing to lend a hand when a teammate needs it. I appreciate soliciting advice on how to develop my talents because I am a very coachable person. I aim to be the most driven, diligent player or recruit you'll come across.

I place a great deal of importance on my schooling. Both within and outside of the classroom, I perform quite well. I consistently earn great grades and have a high GPA. Balmorhea High School is part of an Early College High School and I have been participating since my freshman year. It's anticipated that I'll earn my associate's degree in May of 2024, right before I graduate from high school. I am also a member of the National Honor Society.

I would like to attend a university where I can excel on the court and in the classroom. I'm open to all choices and would like to locate the ideal college match at the highest level of competition. I want to make my parents proud and set a great example for all of my peers in my neighborhood.
