March 2022 Personal Statement
Elijah Ward has been offered by University of Louisville for full scholarship to play football tonight by Pete Nocht 9/29/22. He’s just a freshman.
Elijah is a discipline and very athletic player. He is able to play multiple positions with ease. What I like most is that he is very coachable plays hard and is very humble, and give you all he has without a complaint. Which is hard to find in an athlete. Elijah is a playmaker and great student that still walks in humility. He has that special combination that spells SUCCESS".
Leestown Middle School Offensive Coordinator-Derrick Thomas
"Elijah is a hard worker dedicated player! He is very smart and can pickup anything you teach him. Best most improve player I ever seen. I wish I can coach him again".
