Braden Burger '23 Recruiting Profile

Hello, my name is Braden Burger. I am a Track and Cross Country runner. I have been a Cross Country runner ever since 7th grade. I have fallen in love with the sport and have dedicated myself to running.  I also have been dropping my times significantly, and I know I have a lot more room to grow. As a teammate, I am a Natural born leader and want my team to have success, I show that through my hard work, and Influential mind set. I am always looking to get better every day, and give it 110% for everything I do. I was elected captain for my team for this upcoming season. I am focused on helping my teammates and me improve and bring our team to the next level. I want to compete at the highest level possible all while getting a good education in college.  

I have been a three sport athlete for the past year, XC, hockey, and track. This year I will be switching to Nordic skiing from hockey to help increase my Aerobic capacity. I will also be spending a lot of time in the weight room tuning my body. I have a goal of dropping my times as much as possible before college.

In the classroom, I am always looking for ways to improve myself. I have challenged myself with AP and advanced classes. As a senior, I will be taking some college level classes for credit.  Being a student comes first and will always be a high priority. My leadership skills go beyond the classroom. I have been involved in the Scouts BSA program and will be completing my Eagle in the spring 2022. I am confident that I would be an asset to your program, and I would like to thank you for your consideration.
