Glenshawn Amos '17 Recruiting Profile

To use the term "BALL IS LIFE" would be an understatement.  Hi my name is Glennshawn Devin Amos I'm a 18 year old Senior at Chalmette High School  in Chalmette Louisiana just outside of New Orleans.  I am a 6 feet 1 inch 160 lbs starting point guard with a 3.0 GPA and ACT score of an 22. For the past 11 years its been all about basketball for me.  I started playing recreational basketball in Chalmette after our return home after Hurricane Katrina at the age of six.  Since then I have played on  recreational, AAU , Middle school and High school teams.  Over time I went from being the little short kid that the coaches weren't to sure about to  being a leader, the starting point guard at my high school,  with great ball handling skills , solid defense  and earning awards for leading scorer and best defensive player. I participated in the 2015 AAU championship in Florida leading my team, The St. Bernard Spartans to a second place finish. My goal is to continue on this path which is also a dream for me with my basketball in hand and my eyes on the ultimate prize  of one day playing in The NBA and also picking up on a degree in Business on my way.  My goals are set.  I am currently training and working hard as possible to get the opportunity.  I would call it a blessing to go to college and become one step closer to that ultimate goal.
