Terrize Mills '26 Recruiting Profile

As a dedicated athlete with a passion for both sports and academics, my collegiate goals revolve around excelling in my chosen sport while pursuing a degree that aligns with my career aspirations. I aim to contribute to a team that values hard work, teamwork, and personal growth, and I believe that my unique background and experiences have prepared me to be a valuable asset.

Having moved to Las Colinas in Irving, TX from New Orleans in 2014, I’ve learned the importance of adaptability and resilience. This transition taught me to embrace new challenges and cultivate a strong work ethic. Living with both my parents has provided me with a stable support system, which has been instrumental in my development as an athlete and a student.

My grandfather, the founding Pastor of our church back home in New Orleans, has instilled in me the values of leadership, community service, and integrity. These principles not only guide my actions on the field but also shape my interactions with teammates and coaches. I strive to lead by example, maintaining a positive attitude and encouraging others to push their limits.

In terms of athletics, I possess a competitive spirit and a commitment to continuous improvement. I am always seeking ways to enhance my skills, whether through extra practice or by studying game strategies. My academic achievements reflect my dedication to learning and personal growth; I maintain a strong GPA while balancing my responsibilities as an athlete.

What sets me apart from other recruits is my unwavering commitment to both my sport and my education, along with my strong moral compass. I bring a blend of talent, character, and determination that I believe will not only benefit your team but also enrich the collegiate experience for my fellow athletes. I am excited about the opportunity to contribute to a program that shares my values and aspirations.
