Taylor Gordon '25 Recruiting Profile

When I think of goals or collegiate goals, I always end up looking at the big goal to accomplish, like it's some prized possession of mine. For basketball, I always set goals before every practice and every game and I go off of them when I play, some may be to work, play, and hustle hard, but everyone uses those, so I try to look for goals that I myself can accomplish. Some may be to, compete and finish with a good attitude, or to score more points than what I scored last game, play with a passion, and to not half do something and make someone else do your work, Listen to others for advice and try to see t from the point of view, have no excuses, don't underestimate yourself. Things like this get a team a win because of believing and trust one and another for advice and other important things, a coach once told me to "listen to the details because that will take a team far into their journey." 

My aspiration for basketball is to be a better athlete and be the athlete there for people when they need someone, and to make sure people are well aware to come to me as a person and to be trusted with everything, I've been through things no one should ever go through, but life happens, and I want to be that person to help and cheer up anyone and everyone I can help.
