Richard Prescott '23 Recruiting Profile

I always strive for excellence in my life. I am coachable, a hard worker, committed, energetic and give 100% to those around me. I am currently in my Junior year of high school and have been honored with two athletic newspaper interviews this year, which included quotes from my coaches. Their words summarize my drive to be the best. 

“He is as dynamic an athlete as you’ll see at this level, there are a lot of good athletes at the varsity level, and that’s when it comes down to: preparation.  He is fully committed to what we’re doing. If we have an off-season workout, he’s there. If he’s not, he’s improving his skills through track. He’s an all-in kid, and that’s what you need when you’re building a program. He is just a tough, hard-nosed kid who does everything all out.” Football Coach, Mike Apodaca 

“He was one of our hardest workers. He has a lot of God-given ability, but he also works really hard. He wasn’t just out there for fun, he was working. He came a long way and showed that he is hard-nosed and mentally tough.” Wrestling Coach Kyle Brightman 

“He’s a very talented kid who takes what the coaches tell him and tries to apply it. We expect big things out of him this year. Right now, he is about where we thought he’d be at the end of the year in his jumping events. He’s really come out and done some big things.” Track and Field Coach Bruce Mowry

I will be a good candidate for the team that chooses me, and the team I choose, because of my loyalty and winning spirit. I don't believe in being typical or going along with the crowd if it's the wrong choice. My academics, I am always in class, I don't skip school and I have great relationships with my teachers and peers. I am focusing on my academics more now as I realize it's all one big package. 

Thank you for reviewing my profile and I look forward to working with you!
