Tristan Edwards '16 Recruiting Profile

Growing up in Ohio and as an Ohio State fan I've always wanted to grow up and be the next great Buckeye that kids would look up to. This dream still stands today, but I have accepted that it is extremely difficult to become a division 1 athlete. My current goals are to be able to play football in college while at the same time working towards my degree. I would make a good candidate for a team because I am a hard worker and am willing to do what is needed to help the team. I also would not disappoint in the classroom as my scholastic achievements are just as good as my athletic achievements. I am different from other recruits because I don't give up when my team is down, I have no problem with working hard to get better, and I hold myself to a high academic standard. I also take part in extracurricular activities. I am one of five Western Buckeye League Sportsmanship Committee members. I also volunteer time at the local Humane Society. Another of my achievements is that I was just recently selected as one of eleven NATIONAL HONOR SOCIETY members in my school. I am currently an officer in our district's FCCLA organization and my project received a gold in sectionals and a silver medal in state. One of my best achievements, in my mind,is that I have not missed a day of school in six years and I have only missed a half day in seven years.
