Samuel Peirick '21 Recruiting Profile

Hi, my name is Teddy Peirick. I would describe myself as a leader, a friend, and hard working. I try to be a leader in every aspect of my life. It is a big factor in how I interact with others. I love to help my team, my parents, and the people I work with. Currently, I am working for an organization (Ditto) that helps people that need furniture and other household items. I go around to all areas of St. Louis meeting new people and learning about their lifestyles and what they go through on a day-to-day basis. Before working at Ditto’s, I worked at Smoothie King and within a month was promoted to shift lead. I oversaw multiple employees and was in charge of opening and closing the business. My friends and family are a big part of my life. They have shaped who I am and how I interact with others.  When I came to Westminster High School, I did not know any of my classmates. I played football my first fall and met my friends that I still have today. We push each other on and off the field to make us stronger in mind and body. Hard work is what I thrive for on and off the field. I have learned through my short life that what you put into it is what you get out of it. If you get knocked down in life, you have two choices, stay down or get focused and with hard work you can get back or better.  I want to attack everything with vigor, and I want people to remember me as a young man who strived for greatness and never gave up.
