Adan Rodriguez '29 Recruiting Profile

Football has been more than just a sport to me; it has been a source of discipline, teamwork, perseverance and respect for my parents, coaches, teammates and opponents. From my earliest memories of kicking a ball in the park to representing my school team in tournaments, football has shaped my character and inspired my ambitions both on and off the field.

I have honed my technical skills as a versatile player, excelling in running back and contributing both defensively and offensively. My ability to read the game, combined with my fitness and leadership qualities, has earned me the captaincy of my team, during my 8th grade foorball season, a role that has taught me the importance of responsibility and motivating others. I am an avid analyst of the game, regularly watching matches, studying tactics, and learning from the world's best players and coaches plus what my father has taught me too. 

Academically, I am equally dedicated and have been excelling in all of my courses. I believe that balancing academics and sports has instilled in me time-management skills and a strong work ethic. 

I am eager to take my passion for football to the next level by joining a program that allows me to develop my skills and knowledge further. My ultimate goal is to play professionally and to be a mentor to the upcoming younger generation. I am determined to make the most of every opportunity to grow as a player and individual.

Football is not just a game to me; it is a platform for self-expression, resilience, connection and lessons to apply to my daily life. I am excited to bring my dedication, skills, and enthusiasm to your program, where I hope to contribute meaningfully to the team's success and community.
