Shawn Mervis '21 Recruiting Profile

Everyday I dedicate my day to become a better basketball player.  I know how important strength, conditioning and diet is for me to be a great collegiate basketball player.  So, my daily routing involves lifting weights, running, eating and drinking.  This past year I have put on 20 pounds of muscle.  I am 195 lbs.

With regards to my on the court skills, I would say I am most proud of making my teammates better.  I have great court vision and I am probably too unselfish.  On the offense side of the ball, I am capable of scoring anytime I want from anywhere on the court.  I have an unstoppable pull-up jump shot, which I shoot at a very high percentage.  It is now my most dominate move and very tough to defend.  According to my coaches, my basketball IQ is off the charts.  I have been watching and studying game film of my games for over 6 years.  I always set goals for each game, tournament, and season. 

You will never regret giving me a scholarship. I am a great student.  I am a great basketball player.  And most importantly, I am a great person!
