Dezmond Harris '17 Recruiting Profile

“I can’t change the direction of the wind, but I can adjust my sails to always reach my destinations.”

- Jimmy Dean

I cannot change the world alone, but I can skip a rock across the water to create my own ripples. I want to be an evident light that shines even in darkness. A coach has the ability to touch many lives and make the difference. My coaches have done things for people who will never pay them in return. I am not guilty to say that I lay in the bunch of those who are in debt of paying their coaches back, however, I will teach future generations what my coaches have taught me. I have already set myself apart from the typical crowd by evolving far quicker and resilient as a leader not only vocally, but by example. In result of giving others a favor, a coach cannot receive anything more precious than a former player or student passing on advice he has learned from that same coach. I want to acknowledge my parents and coaches for shaping me into the leader, motivator, scholar, and difference I will bring forth onto the world. I am active in over 7 clubs and I maintain a 4.1 GPA. I say this not to brag, but adequately to announce that this is only the start of what my future will uphold.  –"My motif and goal is to be the best I can be in anything I do, impacting the world through my actions and testimonies."- Dezmond Harris
