Riley Barton '25 Recruiting Profile

Collegiate Goals and Aspirations: If I were to go to college, I intend to graduate high in my class. There is no reason for anything less than that. I will put school first and try to maintain at least a 3.2 GPA. If i can maintain all of these goals, then i should be able to land the job I want as an aerospace engineer. 

Good Candidate Reasoning: While my times and scores aren't Steller now, I have improved a lot over the last few years. Both wrestling and swimming are new to my school, and I have already made myself known to schools around us. In my second year of swim team, I achieved team caption and for wrestling in my short time there I have made it the varsity 170 spot.

What makes me different: I am very aware of the fact academics comes first and athletics seconded. Overall, I'm a happier person, i try to keep moral high on my teams and I try to cheer for my teammates at every event they have. I've been told I have very good leadership skills and really personify what makes a team a team. I think I owe all of this to the fact that I am an Eagle Scout.
