Ethan Palmer '18 Recruiting Profile

My collegiate goals are to acquire my degree in business, sports medicine, and/or theology while playing basketball at the D1/D2 level.  My aspirations are to live for my God and to work hard to achieve my full potential in hopes to help others achieve theirs.  I am an exceptional leader and a hard worker with a passion for the game of basketball.  I am in the gym every chance I have which has earned me the nickname of "Gymrat" by my coaches.  This past season I was the MVP and captain of my team for my ability on the court and my leadership skills.  I am known by my teammates and my class as one who will not conform but stands for what I believe to the point of walking away from friends because of their poor choices.  Although it is evident that I will not compromise my standards,  I am known to be kind and encouraging.  After observing my basketball skills and leadership abilities, Coach Walter Jordan who is an ex-NBA player recruited and scholarshiped me to play on his AAU Exposure team "Team Impact".   In regards to my academics, I believe that my work in the classroom is essential to achieve my goals, and I always put forth my best effort.  Due to my leadership ability, my high character, my work ethic, and my love for the game of basketball, I believe I would be an asset to any basketball team and a choice representative of any college.
