jake turek '20 Recruiting Profile

My goal is to play Division1 hockey and strive for success on and off the ice.  I am a motivated student athlete taking several years of advanced mathematics and now taking an engineering track in high school.  My participation in robotics the last 3 years has opened my eyes to a career in engineering.  My calm demeanor and confidence to overcome the pressures of the game have made me the goalie I am today.  I am always open to new ideas and constructive criticism by coaches and teachers.

I started playing hockey at the age of 6.  After my first season I decided to be a goalie.  Since becoming a goalie, I have received most of my training through Stauber's Goalcrease 1 on 1 sessions.  I have trained and continue to train with Goalcrease trainers over the last 8 years.  Over the years, I have participated in goalie camps and have been on many different AAA hockey teams.  My strong work ethic and determination has lead to my success in hockey and in life.  I was able to help lead my PeeWee A hockey team to a a district Championship win.  Last year I  made the High Performance Tier 1 14u District10 team.  I am now taking part in the High Performance 15 program.  I continue to progress through this program and will be attending the summer festival in St. Cloud in June.  Based on my recent performance at the High Performance spring festival, I have been invited to participate in the Dave Peterson Goalie Camp in August.  I would be a great a asset to any university.  I really love hockey, but also enjoy other hobbies of baseball, dirt biking, skiing, archery and more.
