Paul Jacobson '21 Recruiting Profile

My name is Paul Jacobson and I currently attend Tottenville High School in New York. I run Cross Country, Indoor Track, and Outdoor Track. I am a distance runner with a strong passion for succeeding and winning. I started running track as a Freshmen in High School and I immediately fell in love with the sport.  Track has taught me the importance of hard work, ethics, discipline and mental strength. I have learned to always work my absolute hardest, even when nobody is watching.  Becoming a member of a track team has been a rewarding bonding experience and has shown me the importance of teamwork.   I always strive to contribute as a role model for lower classmen and to be a positive influence on my teammates.

I have a passion for setting goals, achieving them, and surpassing them.  My goal is to pursue a challenging education in Physical Therapy and to become a member of a collegiate Cross Country/Track Team. I strive to be a strong contributor to a college track team.

I currently have a 95 average in school, am a member of the National Honor Society and have achieved Honor Roll throughout my high school years.  I earned my High School teams Varsity Coaches Award during my sophomore year.
