Zian Pena '20 Recruiting Profile

Goals and Aspirations

My dream is to play tennis professionally. Having the opportunity to get to play Division I or Division II tennis is also my goal. During college, I'm also very interested in majoring in Electrical Engineering, but my window is still open for other fields.

What make me a good candidate for your team?

Being coach-able and my leadership is what I can bring to the team. I've learned through personal experiences that talent doesn't mean anything if you don't show dedication to what you're doing. I can do both. Show dedication to the sport and my talent. I strive to be the best student and athlete I can be.

What makes me different from other recruits in character, athletics, and academics?

I believe that to be successful at something doesn't mean you have to start when you are young. As long as you put in work and show dedication to something you love, you will excel.  Being a true Student Athlete is important to me. My academics is a priority as much as tennis.
