Makana Wright '17 Recruiting Profile

My collegiate goals is to not only play football but also to earn a degree that will help me in my future. I want a college degree to insure a brighter future not only for myself but for my family. My main goal is to make it to the NFL. Football is a sport that I just wanted to play in the beginning for fun, now football had grew into being not just a recreational sport but a passion that I have grew to love. Football is something that I will be able to enjoy doing and if I am able to make it to the NFL, I will be able to take care of my family.

I use to slack off in school causing my grades to drop drastically. Because I loved to play football, I knew that all my grades and bad choices would have to change. I would need to maintain good grades and make good choices in order to move forward in life. Since then, I have worked at maintaining my grades at 3.0 and higher. I have reached 3.4 this year and currently working on getting it to a 3.5 or higher. 

I am not one to talk highly about myself, but I can say that I am a team player and eager to learn to prosper not only for myself for my team. I will push myself to succeed and strive on the field, in the classroom, in the weight room, in general.
