Blake Grider '23 Recruiting Profile

I am looking for a college that will help me earn a degree in a field that interests me and will help me find a long lasting career once I have graduated. I am also looking for this college to have a good athletics program as sports and being physically fit are important to me in my personal life.  Sports has taught me many things that I have carried over into my personal life as well. These lessons have helped me be a better person. I am highly dedicated to any sport I play. I give my all each time I practice or play a game. I like to help others on my team succeed and enjoy learning to be a leader for my teammates as well.  I think that my passion and love for the game drive me to be a well rounded athlete. I work hard not just in academics but in learning the sport and what it takes to be a good athlete. I make sure my academics come first and keep my grades up so that I can participate in my teams, as they count on me to be there. Being an athlete isn't just showing up, scoring, and winning it is hard work , dedication, learning the sport and its in and outs, listening to your coaches, and working as a team.
