Isaiah Richards '22 Recruiting Profile

I have a strive to succeed in everything I do, and I always want to be the best teammate I can also be by encouraging the younger players. I'm a hard worker and work well with adult coaches, and help to make those around me better team players as well.  I  plan on attending college, and will either focus on physical therapy or business.  I feel as though I can be an excellent addition to any team. I am versatile as a football player, whether at WR, at RB, at QB on offense, or CB or S on defense.  I also am a kicker and punter, as well as the primary returner both on kicks and punts.

I currently also play basketball,  I started on varsity as a sophomore, and will be playing again this coming winter. Summers I played AAU basketball ball for the SD Venom and Sanford Pentagon teams based out of Sioux Falls, SD, we participated in AAU tourneys in Omaha, Kansas City, Lawrence, KS, Topeka, Minneapolis, and Sioux Falls. I also participate in track during the school year.  In track I run the 100, 200, 400, 4x100, 4x200, and 4x400 meter relays.  During this past summer I played baseball on my 2nd State of South Dakota Class A championship team as a shortstop, centerfielder, and leftfielder, and have also played fall baseball in the Augustana University Fall League.  Growing up I was an avid soccer player on travel teams and was a member of the US Junior Olympic Development Team for ND/SD.  Additionally, each fall I coach and teach youth soccer for the Beresford Parks & Recreation Department and work full-time in the summer for Beresford Parks & Recreation. I also teach baseball and softball to Beresford youth players, and spent several weeks this fall teaching kicking and field goals to the Beresford Junior football program (3rd-6th grade)
