ELIAS EMANUEL '18 Recruiting Profile

     Firstly, I would like to thank all of you for giving me the opportunity to share a part of myself with you and hoping someone will believe in me as athlete as well as I believe in myself.  Currently, I have many dreams and aspirations but, a goal that never leaves me is Sports.  I've played many sports over the years (soccer, basketball, football, track/field ) but, nothing speaks to me clearly than Football.  Track/Field helped me become a faster runner and did help me build up strength and stamina.  Fortunately, for me I've been blessed with a gift to be better at Sports than the average player. What makes me different is my ability to work hard and harder to beat my competitor.  I am an asset to any team because I am not a athlete that believes in just winning, but excelling in my sport.  Its vital that I beat my personal record, become the best athlete for my Coach, teammates and myself.  My personal growth attributes to my supportive family especially my parents.  My father is my biggest hero dealing with renal failure and finally living with a donated kidney.  Even when he is not at his best, I've learned I have to be better because my Dad said " he is doing his best for me" He said " I am the his hero."  I replied No, Dad I am just me your Son.  My Mother is fair, firm, consistent and she is a great cook!  I can honestly say, I work best when provoked. I can sometimes become distracted with subjects that do not interest me but, once redirected I am back on course. I love the South and I have a strong interests in Agriculture farming, plant, soil etc..  I do plan to graduate with a Bachelor Degree in Science.  My character is a bit different from most. I am not a follower and not at all interested in how another person moves. I can only go at my pace in my personal life and do things when they are right for me. I do not smoke or drink but, I am a great dancer, listener, pay attention to the smallest detail and love music.    Thank you !!
