Andrew Mason '20 Recruiting Profile

I have always dreamed of playing at a Division 1 College.  My dream was almost taken away from me in November of 2016 when I was diagnosed with Thoracic Outlet Syndrome.  At the time, I was in 9th grade and the starting point guard on Varsity for Webster Thomas.  Basketball was taken away from me for almost 8 months.  After surgery and physical therapy, I was able to over come TOS and continue on with my goal of playing Division 1 basketball.  I learned to never take anything for granted and through hard work I can overcome any obstacle.  In this past off season, I had a shooting routine where my parents rebound and chart my three point attempts.  I attempted 28,129 threes.  I made 20,368 of them.  These attempts include shooting off the dribble, off of screens and NBA range threes.   I believe I have the work ethic and determination to successfully play and contribute to any team that wishes to have me.  I have been around the game of basketball my whole life and have developed a high basketball IQ.  I am a team player and a team Captain who leads by example.  I am willing to take on any role that is necessary for my team to win.  Academically, I have maintained a 93.4% GPA, with the understanding of the importance in maintaining a high academic standard.  I am taking multiple AP courses and was elected to the National Honor Society in October 2018.
