Owen Gallegos '22 Recruiting Profile

Hi my name is Owen Gallegos. I am a Senior  who played sophomore  and Junior year on Varsity and currently play at the shooting guard and small forward position. I understand the game to a deep perspective and take my time to understand it more and excel at being the smartest player on the court.  I am an excellent perimeter shooter and playmaker.  I bring a presence of mindset and energy no one can match.   I am looking to play at the next level for multiple reasons. Number 1; I want to keep competing while I continue my education with a degree. And number 2; I want to  bring a contribution to the athletic program for my school while I continue to be a student-athlete. 

I am coming off a First Team All League (PCAL) season and would love it if y'all would give me a chance. I am a 6ft 3 inch 190 pound SG/SF in the class of 2022. I love to compete with everything and always try to be better than my competition every day. I specialize in moving without the ball to let my elite 3 point shot go. And I also love to pass and make plays with my teammates. I enjoy sharing the ball a lot and get as many touches for the team. I possess the skill and IQ to play at the collegiate level but have just fallen through the cracks of recruitment.

I am a 3 year starter on the Gilroy High School Varsity Men's Basketball team and finished up my Senior year. I was a starting shooting guard as a sophomore on our first league title (PCAL) since 2005-2006. The following  2 seasons as a Junior and Senior I led my team as a captain standing at 6’3 playing the shooting guard and small forward position. For the past few years my team’s success has relied on my great basketball IQ, my elite passing and decision making, my ability to move well off the ball to get off my exceptional jumpshot, and also my ability to guard all 5 positions at the high school varsity level.
