Sean Taylor '13 Recruiting Profile
Video
2012 HighlightsPersonal Statement
My name is Sean Taylor and I am a 5'11'', 170 lb point guard. I graduated from Southshore HS in Brooklyn. I attended Xaverian HS from 2008-2011 where I helped them win a championship in 2009. I am currently attending a prep school in NC. I am an unselfish player and take great pride in helping to make my teammates better. The team and their accomplishments always come before my own. I love throwing the perfect pass that leads to an easy basket. I am looking for a college that offers a highly competitive academic curriculum. My family and I place a high value on education. From a basketball perspective, I am looking for a program where I can contribute as both a player and a person. I will bring to a school great point guard skills including: intelligence, court awareness, leadership, strong ball handling skills and a long range jump shot. I feel that I can compete at the Division 1 and 2 level. Preferably, I am looking to find a school, a coach and an environment that enables me to continue to develop skills where I can be successful on and off the court and also be an inspiration to my family, friends and community.
