Jc Helpenstell '20 Recruiting Profile

I was born to a family that loves football, which naturally led me to love it!  Watching 2 older brothers play the sport when I was young taught me so much and fueled my desire to play even more.   My academic goals are to obtain a college degree in Psychology and I feel football will help me achieve this.  I believe I’m a great candidate for college football because I have a strong work ethic, both on the field and off the field.  My ability to take criticism and praise in stride, sets me apart from other candidates.  I have a great deal of self discipline which keeps me highly motivated to excel at the sport that I love.  Respect for my elders, to include my coaches and teachers, is important to me, keeps me humble, and is what I believe makes me more "coachable" than most recruits.   I have played multiple positions both on offense and defense, eager to help my team anyway I can.  I have been selected as a "Player to watch" in Dave Campbell's Texas Football Magazine 2018 and 2019.  I am currently a Senior in High School and have served as a team captain during my Junior year and now currently in my Senior year.  I was also selected as All District Linebacker during my Junior year.
