Jack Erickson '24 Recruiting Profile

Ever since I was a kid I have had the desire to be faster than everyone else.  I am the "Swiss Army Knife" of our track team.  My coach will put me in many different events to score points for our team.  Because of this, I have been named Team MVP 2 of my 3 years.  I have been training to become a State Champion in the 300m hurdles.  My times have dramatically improved each year ending with a PR my Junior year at the State Championship where I was State Runner-up.  My goal for next year is to be the State Champion.

I also started running the 100m Dash part way through this past season and surprised my coaches and myself.  My times improved throughout the 2023 season with PR's almost every meet.  I made it through Conference, Regionals, Sectionals, and punched my ticket to State in an event I didn't expect.  I got a PR in the prelims and made finals, finishing 10th overall.  Next season I want to run 100, 200, and 300h where my goal is to make it to state in all 3 events.

I have been on the Varsity basketball team all 3 years of my high school career.  I was a starter all last season, top 3 on the team in scoring and was named 2nd Team All Conference.  Our team was 1 win away from State.  I am also on an AAU basketball team and have been to numerous camps.

In the classroom I work very hard and maintain a high GPA.  I take classes that will help me in the future including multiple AP and Honors classes.  

I love training and learning new ways to get PR's and I believe that I will continue to get faster my senior season and beyond.  I want to attend a college that I will be able to push myself in the classroom and on the track.
