Jaison Coates '19 Recruiting Profile

My long term aspirations are to either go pro and play in the WNBA or become a Computer Hardware Engineer. Basketball is my passion, but I have a desire to learn more about how computers function and building the hardware for them. I also hope to have a stable career after basketball. I am interested in a school that challenges me mentally and has a very competitive athletic program. I have a passion for the competitive environment. I am currently competing at a highly competitive high school and performing well. I am a leader among my peers and I lead by not just words, but also by example. I don't see leadership as running others, but as a characteristic of one who can improve the team and themselves for the better and as one.

As for athletics, I am well built, quick, and versatile, along with being able to play multiple positions well. Being a fast learner, I can bring a lot to a team. I'm very selfless and put my team before myself so that my team as a whole is successful.
