Elijah Klapper '16 Recruiting Profile

My work ethic has always been my most favorable trait. Having consistency and a focused mindset has helped me develop myself into a finer athlete, and into a greater and more responsible person. As my athletic abilities heightened, so did my performance in the classroom. Over the course of the past three years, I have gained the skills and traits necessary in order to succeed academically at a collegiate level. I can truly say that the choices I have made throughout high school, and my dedication to my football and wrestling teams, have positively impacted me in such a profound way. Being the captain of my wrestling team has helped me hone my leadership skills, and has given me the opportunity to be a role model. Being a role model, I'm always conscious of my choices and how I choose to present myself. In college, I aspire to achieve academic success, and to become the finest student and athlete that I can be.
