Connor Young '17 Recruiting Profile

    I first started playing football when I was around 8 or 9 years old. I fell in love with the sport and I will never regret stepping onto the field. This passion of football has created a great environment for me to succeed. It is my dream to play football at the collegiate level. I know this game will not last forever. So naturally, I want to play football as long as possible. On the field, I believe in leading by example and motivating my teammates to give it all they have on every snap for the better of the team. In college, I would like to major in either a science(such as biology or chemistry) or a social study(such as psychology). These interest me because I love to learn more about how things work and why things happen. 

    A good reason why I am a recruit that is different then others is how I handle adversity. I tore my ACL before my junior year and I am out for the season and during that time I have focused on learning different defenses and their weaknesses to my offense. This made me realize how blessed I am to be a part of this game and have the opportunity to play in college. I cannot thank anybody enough for any opportunity to show them what I can do.
