Jacob Leavitt '23 Recruiting Profile

My story started when I was born in colorado. I lived in colorado for about seven years; while there, I played Roller Hockey and soccer. When I was about Seven years old, my parents decided we needed to move closer to family, so we ended up moving to Sikeston, Missouri. For almost two years, we lived with my grandparents till we could find a house to buy. When we moved here, I ended up getting into baseball because my grandpa was big into baseball, so I ended up playing. Another new sport that I ended up getting into was Wrestling. I also kept playing soccer. Wrestling has been a life changer for me; it has opened new doors. For example, it taught me how to compete; having to go out on the wrestling mat by myself, nerves going crazy, shows a person's colors and personality.

Wrestling has allowed me to accomplish some goals as the team captain/leader of the wrestling team am also a state qualifier and accomplished academic all-conference and district. Currently, I'm a senior in Highschool I still wrestle and play baseball I stopped playing soccer because of injuries. During Highschool, I completed some crucial classes. I am in Dual credit biology, dual credit algebra, dual credit trigonometry, and dual credit public speaking. I also have taken Ap government and four years of engineering. As academics go, I am an A B student. I'm also involved in school clubs, including Bums ( A student section), and inspired presenters, where we go to different classes and spread an inspirational message to other classrooms.
