Justin Carlos '17 Recruiting Profile

I want to play college football because it’s been my childhood dream. Growing up, football has been a huge part of my life and continues to be. I feel doing something you love at a high level, in an outstanding environment is a dream come true. I could help the team by the hard work and dedication to the game I have. With my leadership qualities, and determination to make myself and the people around me better, I feel a team can truly benefit.

I feel some qualities that I show on the field are leadership and a hard work ethic.  I have that voice to   rally the guys, and keep them focused and determined on the goal. To motivate and show leadership is an asset I possess.  My work ethic is also important on the field. I am willing to give my all 100% of the time, for my teammates and coaches. I’m determined to try hard, and persevere through any perceived weakness to help ensure the success of the team.

The three most important things in my life are God, family and Football in that order. God obviously, because he allows me to go out and perform every day and without him none of this is possible. My family for their continuous support and love, through my journey, I owe it all to them. Finally the sport I love, football. This has been a part of my life since I could remember, and I pray that it will continue to be.

Having played in a Division 1 caliber program like Bergen catholic was a wonderful experience.  All the coaches were dialed in to making the team successful. I truly believe that experience combined with my new team at NVD has prepared me well for college ball.
