Josie Nies '20 Recruiting Profile

Ever since I was about four years old, I knew basketball was always going to be my favorite sport. I grew up practicing every day and working hard to become the best player possible. As I have gotten older, there is no question that I want to play college basketball at the highest level possible, and I believe with all the hard work and dedication I put into basketball, it can happen. I would be a great candidate to any team because I work hard all the time, have great leadership skills, put teammates before myself, and I'm always positive. I'm different from others because I wear a chip on my shoulder in every situation I am in. I want to win more than anything, but if there is a loss, I gather the data and work to become better than I was the day before. I have a great basketball IQ and have been around the game my entire life because I grew up playing and watching my older brother play basketball. Academically, I give it my all. I do homework, study for hours, and go into every quiz or test with an open mind and a positive attitude. I take challenging classes, and yet I am still succeeding. I can guarantee that I will be a player that will go the extra step, bring energy and positivity, and talent to any team.
