Jason Coste '13 Recruiting Profile

My Athletic Goals
As a child I always had a dream to play professional soccer.  At the end of my freshman year, that all changed.  I was asked by my football coach to tryout to be the kicker for the JV team.  I did and I made the team.  Three games into the season I became the varsity kicker.  Once I moved to varsity, my kicking improved (in part to having a better snapper and holder) but also due to my growing confidence.  During my junior year, I made "All Big Bend" as the kicker/punter and I began wondering, “maybe I can play at the next level".  Since last year, I have worked hard in the weight room and on the field to improve my strength and kicking abilities.  I attended several camps and worked with some nationally known kicking instructors.  My goal now is to get a scholarship offer at a college or university that also fits my other needs such as location and academics.  I was recently named Class 3A 1st Team All-State Punter my senior year.

My Academic Goals
I hope to attend college and get a 4-year degree.  I am unsure of what exactly I want to do after college, so I am not sure what my major will be at this point. 

My Personal Life
I enjoy working on my truck, installing electronics (such as amplifiers, subwoofers, and such).  I enjoy working on computers.  I custom built my own high-end gaming computer when I was 15 after researching what parts needed to give me the system I wanted.  I had worked odd jobs to pay for this myself.  I may find a future in the Information Technology industry or something completely different.  I have been involved in my church since birth.  I enjoy helping others and have participated in service projects throughout high school.  I also enjoy mentoring younger youth to encourage them in their walk with God.

My Future
I don't know what the future holds, but I trust that God will help me with whatever He has planned in my life.  If kicking in college is part of it that would be fantastic!
