Joseph Jacquez '21 Recruiting Profile

    When I was a kid I was a very shy and small kid.  When my dad had me watch a football game on T.V. with him I wanted to play.  However, being from a small low-income community the sport wasn't offered to me until my 7th grade year.  Once I started football I learned my strengths and weaknesses.  My strengths are as follows, I am a strong goal driven and determined person.  My attitude towards my coach and teammates is always good, I was raised with manners and respect towards everyone.  I am a humble person I do not gloat about my accomplishments.  I always see my accomplishments as success, however I always think there is more to work on.  I've learned just because I have a bad game or practice I still dig deep I don't ever give up.  I also encourage my teammates to do the same, I remind them we still have a job to do no matter how the game is going.  As a junior and a team captain I am always there for my teammates to encourage and help them succeed.  With my type of personality I get along with everyone.

    I've learned just because the season ends there is still work to do.  I work hard, nothing is ever handed to me. I do the work and will continue to do my job.  I know no matter what I want in life I have to work hard and I earn everything I've worked for.
