Jordan Tanuvasa '15 Recruiting Profile

Jordan Tanuvasa – 5’11” / 175lb / Point Guard / Punahou School 
 
What makes me a good candidate for any team is my positive attitude and work ethic.  As a point guard I believe I would be a good asset because of my leadership skills, composure, decision-making, court vision, and the ability to get my teammates involved.
 
My freshman year I was the starting point guard for the Varsity, Division 1 team and expected to take on a leadership role from the start.  Our team went on to win our League and State Championship that year.
 
My sophomore year I was selected as captain and returned as the starting point guard.  Our team finished third in the State that year.
 
My junior year I tore my ACL playing football in October 2013 and missed my junior season of basketball.  This injury was a test to my character and work ethic, however I believe I rose to the challenge.  It took consistent hard work and a positive attitude to get through this and it has definitely strengthened me both mentally and physically.  In May 2014 I was back on the court.
 
Like basketball, I take my academics seriously.  My academic goal is to acquire a degree that will serve me well beyond my playing days.  I’m currently interested in studying Business Finance or Economics. Basketball has always been my passion and I will continue to work hard both on and off the court so that I can attend college and play at the collegiate level.

1)     6/13/14 – 6/15/14:  Kyle Smith’s (Elite) Basketball Camp at Columbia University (New York, NY)
2)     7/16/14 – 7/20/14:  Double Pump Boys Best of Summer Tournament (Anaheim, CA) – Hawaii Select AAU Team
