Ryan Kershaw '21 Recruiting Profile

Coaches:

I believe that most recruits will say that schools is important , they are hard working , and they  have good character.   I believe those statements accurately depict myself however I don't believe that is what really sets me apart. 

I believe what sets me apart besides being smart, hardworking, and having good character is two main attributes. 

First,  I am competing at a world class level in Ski Racing which takes a tremendous amount of aggressiveness, coordination, technique, discipline and athletic ability.   Growing up I have played and been successful at Tennis, basketball, track, soccer, football, and in every sport I quickly become the leader on the field or the court, or the hill.   My parents are both athletic and my mothers grandfather played for the Greenbay packers back in 1946. 

The second attribute that sets me apart in sports but especially skiing and Football is my aggressive attitude and the fact that I really enjoy contact.  Most would say I am extremely aggressive and flat out mean on the football field.   Don't know why , I am a growing up in a middle class situation with an incredibly stable family setting ,(most would say I am a fortunate kid)  however for what ever reason I just play football like I am mad at the world.   Most people if they did not know any better would think that I have had a tough life.   

lastly, academics, hard work, and character are all extremely important and are part of my core values, however if you really want to find out what separates me from others is my all around athletic versatility and the attitude and aggressive behavior I unveil on the football field.

thank you
