Mateusz Jakobschy '24 Recruiting Profile

Stepping-up from the Polish home league to Spanish best regional competition was the highlight of my high school career. However, I feel I grew the most as a student-athlete the first year in Spain where I had to adapt my lifestyle and learn how to play and live by myself in an abroad country. That experience helped me grow as a Player and led me to refocus my own efforts on becoming a pure small forward that is capable of playing at the college level.

I was fortunate enough to be part of an amazing program, competing with the best teams from the Valencia region over my first year and participating in international tournaments. I learned the value of teamwork, commitment, sacrifice, and leadership that first year. I'm looking forward to finding a program that will be just as good for me athletically as academically. I believe I not only have the talent to compete for a college team, but the Fighters spirit, work-ethic, and communication skills to make an immediate impact on your program. As a National Level athlete and current captain, I know that I have the values to bring a big bart to your team!
