Isabella Ross '23 Recruiting Profile

My name is Izzy Ross.  My two passions are playing basketball and mechanical engineering.  Achieving my goals of playing collegiate basketball and being a mechanical engineer have a lot in common. Both require focus, dedication, persistence, learning from mistakes and working with others to reach a common goal. 

I believe that I stand out from other players in several ways. In my play, I put my team before myself. I view feedback about my performance as an opportunity to improve my game. Whether we are winning or losing, I stay positive and have a good attitude.  On and off of the court, I give my best effort. 

With ten years of basketball experience and my experience playing many sports over the years, I have a well-rounded athletic background.  On the court, as a guard, I am fast and aggressive. My skills include shooting, passing, dribbling, defense, and court vision. 

Along with playing sports year-round, I strive to excel academically.  The majority of my classes are AP and Honors. I am on track to reach my academic goals to graduate high school with above a 4.0 GPA and attend an elite college to study mechanical engineering. 

I have a lot to offer the right college, both athletically and academically. I hope to make a significant contribution to a collegiate basketball program that can help me continue to grow as both a player and a person.
