Trenton Munoz '21 Recruiting Profile

I can’t wait for the wrestling season to begin! I am currently a  senior at Valencia High School in Southern California (Valencia). I am a three-year varsity starter, coming off an accomplished season with a record of 43-9, ending my season with a 2-2 record, breaking into the top 16 at the CIF State Tournament. My goals for this off-season are to continue to improve and push myself by training with my club team, attending a variety of camps and pre-season tournaments as permitted under the current pandemic guidelines. I am also committed to my academic studies and finishing my school year with a 4.0 GPA, which include honors classes.

Wrestling has taught me many life lessons and has a lot to do with who I am as a person. One of the lessons that I am most grateful for is that “hard work pays off.” Hard work in the practice room pays off during competition, just like hard work in the classroom pays off during exams and finals. Overall, wrestling has made me the person I am today.

I believe my values and work ethic separate me from the group. I try to be a good person, mindful of others, honest, committed and responsible. I believe in being helpful and helping others improve. I have been told that one of my greatest strengths is my determination, I never let up. I continue the fight to the last second.

I look forward to continuing my education and athletic competition at the collegiate level. I believe my hard work, dedication to the sport and my team will make me a great asset to any wrestling program. I am not afraid to push myself to the limits, I love learning about wrestling from others, and I just love the sport as a whole. I am excited for the opportunity to speak with coaches and learn more about their programs and how I may be able to contribute to them.
