James Johnson '22 Recruiting Profile

My collegiate goals and aspirations are not only athletic but academic as well. I plan to do well in my academic life achieving Dean's list (or the highest level I can) throughout my four years of college. My athletic goals are to wrestle varsity all four years, competing at the highest level I can, and performing the best I can each time I step on the mat. What makes me a good candidate for any team is that I am very dedicated to the sport and giving my all each and every practice, being one of the first to get to practice and one of the last to leave. I am able to pick up new moves and techniques quickly to implement into my game plan. I work extraordinarily hard to make sure each and every day I am improving in some aspect of the sport. I also work well within a team, being able to learn from helpful criticism and helping to push my fellow team members to their best. What makes me different from other recruits is my work ethic. I always give 110% each and every day, in and out of the wrestling room. I am a very friendly, understanding, and communicative person. I always put academics and athletics first ensuring that my performances in both reflect my very best.
