Jayla Nagel '23 Recruiting Profile

My collegiate goals and aspirations are to test myself by playing at a higher skill level of basketball. I am always looking to challenge myself and set new goals. Making it on a D1 team would be a dream come true; however, no matter what college I attend I want to continue my basketball career. It is a true passion of mine. I want to also learn from other coaches to take their knowledge and better myself.  Although basketball is very important to me, my education is also important, and I want to succeed at both during college.  The reason I would be a great candidate as I have great leadership skills and have been leading my varsity team since my freshman year of high school. I am not afraid of hard work and managing academics, athletics, and a job. As I have done all of those things in high school plus work on my family farm.  I continue to work outside of the season to improve my skills. I also believe that you need to stay positive on and off the court as being mentally strong is important to be fully successful.  When I decided to do something, I go in all the way and give my full commitment.  I am very coachable and dedicated. I take pride in my character.
