Joseph Stone '19 Recruiting Profile

Basketball has been a passion of mine ever since I can remember. My will to compete is the source of my relentless, driven attitude. Basketball has molded me into a strong, fast and humble individual.  I can't imagine life without basketball. 

My coaches tell me that my strongest asset is my work ethic.  Though basketball comes easily to me, practice makes perfect.  Nothing takes the place of hundreds of drills, and a solid schedule in the gym.  I am determined, driven and passionate about basketball.  Failure is something I cannot stand, and I am willing to do what others won't in order to accomplish what others can not.  My current goal, as I am back in my off-season  routine, is to implement a strict conditioning schedule with fidelity while improving my jump shot as well as my communication skills.  Though I am not bad at communication, it can always be improved, especially as the point guard.  I will be working to get playing time as a freshman anywhere I go.  I would like to go to a school with a great atmosphere where I can find balance between class and the court.  I am open to all schools, however, I prefer to go to a school in which has a stable hierarchy of coaches and courses in which I can major in Chemistry.  While my goal is to play NCAA Division 1 or Division 2 basketball, I keep an open mind and am open to all opportunities.
