Ian Silva '21 Recruiting Profile

Hi my name is Ian Silva and I am a rising 8^th grader at Holy Cross School in New Orleans, LA.  I am 5’8” linebacker and weigh 162lbs. My fastest recorded 40 yard dash was a 5.41 and my last recorded weight stats were: bench 135, cleaned 155, and squat 235.  I have been conditioning with the varsity football players since January and have seen a steady increase in my statistics.

I started playing football at the playground when I was 6 years old and played for two years.  I stopped playing for two years but when I returned at 10 years old, I have been fully committed to the game.  I played the next 3 years at the playground and was selected to play for the JPRD All-Star team each year.  My 7^th grade year at Holy Cross I played at school, at the playground, and on the JPRD team.  My 8^th grade year at Holy Cross I played on both the 7^th/8^th grade team and the 9^th grade team.      

I am interested in universities in the south central/south  east region with an outstanding academic reputation.  I have just begun to think about my career choices and I am considering criminal justice or military science with an interest in becoming a police officer or entering the military.  Although the south is my preference I am open to considering programs in other regions.

It is my dream to play football in college and I am very interested in learning more about your university and your football program.  I am a very dedicated player and I have a drive to be the best player I can be.
