Jack Kaplan '21 Recruiting Profile

Playing basketball, or any of the other many sports I have been involved in, has helped me learn how to work cooperatively and develop high standards of performance.  I excel at basketball, football, baseball and golf but basketball is my most loved sport. During my freshman year, I played on the Varsity Team as a starter and began developing a much more competitive game.  By the end of the season, I produced consistent play giving 100 percent of my effort at all times. Academically, I put forth the same amount of effort.

Personally, I have also experienced some major setbacks.  With the recent loss of my Dad and my Uncle, it has focused me that much more on becoming a better athlete and scholar.  While this has been a major obstacle, I have been able to maintain my work ethic and drive to excel. My goal is to make them proud and I want to be the best I can be no matter what difficulty may arise.
