Savanna Samuelson '19 Recruiting Profile

Hello Coaches! My name is Savanna Samuelson. I appreciate you taking the time to review my profile and learn more about my goals.

I truly enjoy the game of basketball and have been working to improve my skills for several years so I can compete at the college level. My goal is to bring my passion for the game to a college where I can also continue with my plan of graduating in the areas of Biology and Sports Kinesiology (Coaching).

My coaches would describe me as a true competitor with an extremely high level of self-accountability. Teammates would describe me as encouraging towards others, focused on strong defense, and good teammate. With this approach I have received a Coaches Award for my drive to improve while helping others.

The main item that separates me from others is the ability to overcome challenges. My mother is a cancer survivor and her strength has inspired me to push through tough times.  This has helped me fight through serious injuries in my Sophomore and Senior High School seasons.   

I would like to bring this work ethic and drive to the right university. I am looking for a coaching staff who will help me and my teammates achieve our long-term goals, inspires us to become better, and recognizes hard work.
