Lexi Schultz '21 Recruiting Profile

    Academics have always been a big thing in my family, but so has basketball. Everyday when I step into the class room I give my classes 100 percent. I don't mess around and I don't hang out with the wrong crowd. I don't have many friends but the ones I do support me in every step of my basketball career and so do my family members. Academics in my mind are the most important things anyone can have. I believe that with a strong mind you can be a great athlete and you can also do big things in the work field. College isn't always about partying, it's about studying and actually getting somewhere in life. When I was little I always wanted to play basketball. It didn't really start to take off until i was like 9 or 10 when I first met my step dad. He played a lot of basketball and he was very good at it. I always wanted to play with him and he helped me get where I am today. When I told he I wanted to keep playing, he told me I had the potential to go somewhere and that is why I keep going and give my athletics and academics 100 percent!
