Declan Healey '24 Recruiting Profile

My introduction to tackle football was in the Spring of 2021 after we returned to in-person school. I had limited exposure to playing football but it came naturally and I wanted to be part of the team. I was fortunate to have great coaches who were able to bring out the best in me. With each season I have had great success and in my Senior year, I was voted by the Freeway League coaches Offensive Player of the Year, and selected on the 2023 CIF Southern Section First Team.  Now I look forward to playing at the next level.  

I take my training very seriously and have made great efforts to become bigger, stronger, and faster through exercise, diet, and gym time.  Last year I joined track to prepare for football and finished first in the 100 and 200 meters for the Freeway League.  

The coaching staff chose me to be on the leadership council for football. I am most humbled by my teammates for voting for me to be a team captain my senior year.  I aim to be a good leader, teammate, and role model.

I tested into the Tech Program at Troy High School which is a nationally recognized school. I took Honors and AP/IB classes in a challenging curriculum. I study hard and maintain a high GPA. I have earned the Academic Athlete Scholar Award in all 4 years of school.

I want to play football at a college with an excellent business/economics program. My goal is to excel on the field and in the classroom.
