Gavin Elder '22 Recruiting Profile

I am a 6'0, 180 lb. quarterback from Bellingham, Massachusetts.  Due to Covid-19, I will be participating in the 2021 "Spring Football" season as a junior.  I am and always have been a three sport athlete and have been playing football since second grade.  Over my athletic career, I have played football, baseball, basketball, track and lacrosse.  It was my pop-warner years that laid the foundation for the player I am today.  I had great coaches who taught me "you play in a game the way you practice".  Practice like a champion and you will play like a champion.  My coaches demanded excellence and pushed us hard.  I learned that hard work is essential for success.  My approach to the game today is no different than what is was back then.  Hard work, persistence, and the drive to be the best is how I have pushed myself in my high school career.  It's been difficult not playing this Fall, but I have accepted it and am now looking forward to our Spring season.  I am looking for a school that will continue to help me grow as a person, stimulate me academically and offer the experience of playing college sports.
