Michael Chavez '24 Recruiting Profile

Dear College Football Coaches,

I hope this message finds you well. As a senior high school football prospect, I am writing to express my collegiate goals and aspirations, as well as to highlight why I believe I would be a valuable addition to your team.

My football journey has been one of continuous growth and excellence, spanning from my early days in Pop Warner to my current role as a versatile player on my high school varsity team. I have had the privilege of contributing in various positions, playing as a tight end, defensive back, punter, and kick returner. My ability to excel in multiple positions is a testament to my dedication, work ethic, and adaptability.

Beyond football, I have immersed myself in a wide range of sports throughout my life, including club basketball, Little League baseball, and even gymnastics. This diverse athletic background has honed my physical fitness and instilled in me a deep love for competition and teamwork.

What sets me apart as a candidate is my unwavering commitment to athleticism and my consistent drive to improve my skills. Football, in particular, holds a special place in my heart. I am not only a player but a dedicated fan, actively participating in Madden, managing two fantasy football leagues with friends, and representing my high school team with pride. Football is more than a sport to me; it's a way of life.

On the field, I have made significant contributions to my team's success. In our most recent game, which was unfortunately called off due to a teammate's serious injury, I played a pivotal role in securing our lead with the first touchdown and several key plays. In another game, I helped orchestrate a comeback victory, catching four passes, converting a crucial 2-point conversion, and sealing the win with a game-saving defensive play. These experiences have reinforced my passion for the game and show my ability to perform under pressure.

In terms of character, athletics, and academics, I believe I stand out among recruits. My years of playing various sports have endowed me with excellent on-field emotional intelligence, allowing me to anticipate plays and make strategic decisions. I am a team player who values camaraderie, and my respect for others extends beyond the field to my community, including volunteer work at Tom Kuyper's sports camp, instilling the love of sports in children.  

With a solid academic record boasting a 3.25 GPA, I am committed to maintaining a balance between my studies and my passion for football. While I may not have a concrete career path in mind, I am certain that my love for the game, my versatility on both offense and defense, and my coachable nature make me a promising asset to any college football program.

I am eager to find the right collegiate match that will allow me to pursue my passion for football and make a meaningful impact on your team. I look forward to the opportunity to discuss how I can contribute to your program's continued success.

Thank you for considering my candidacy, and I hope to hear from you soon.

Sincerely,

Michael Chavez
