Alexus Lawson '16 Recruiting Profile

    The most important thing to me is to be able to go to college and it would be a privilege to be able to play basketball at a college level. In college I want to major as an Forensic Scientist. One of my biggest aspiration in life is my older cousin Zeakeya. She graduated high school in the top percent of her class and got a scholarship to a four year university and graduated with a masters degree in nursing. Now she is married, with a newborn baby girl, and have the career that she love and want. I am the best candidate for your team because I am a very hard worker, coachable,  positive person, and discipline. I love to make other people laugh, smile, and I will be the first person to cheer on my teammates. You want a person on your team that is willing to put hard work and dedication on the court. Every time I get on the court I give it my all, u will get nothing but one hundred and ten percent from me every day in practice, games, academics, and even outside of the gym. Grades are very important to me and so far this year I have been on the honor roll. I like to think of my basketball play type as a defensive player. I think getting stops on the defensive end, hustling for the ball, on ball pressure, diving for lose balls, and treating every possession like its the last few seconds of the game is what it takes to win a basketball game. I know that going to college and playing basketball at a college level is not going to be a smooth transition but I am up for the challenge. I am ready to go to college, become successful, become a better basketball player, and grow as a person.
