Jonathan Young '18 Recruiting Profile

Hello, my name is Jonathan Young. At this moment I am a sophmore attending Bishop Guertin High School, which is a private high school, in Nashua New Hampshire.  Last year I played hockey for the Middlesex Islanders U14 Elite team. The team was really successful and won the Division 1 EHF hockey league and was ranked 13th in the country. My plan is to go to college and major in business.  My dream is to play division one hockey in college. Personally, I am very dedicated to hockey and work hard to get better every day.  I shoot 100 to 200 pucks per day, and work on stickhandling for around 40 minutes a day. current I am doing on ice skills twice a week.  Additionally, I have off ice training  four days a week.  We work on strength and conditioning.  Currently I am dead lifting 315 pounds. Front squatting 195, and benching 165. I have definately increased my speed on the ice since I have been doing off ice work outs. I also attend a few camps and tournaments over the off season.  I am very polite and always respectful of my peers and always welcome new people in. I think I would be a great candidate for any hockey team because I always give 100 percent effort, and am always looking to elevate my game. I'm different then other recruits because although I love hockey, and am constantly striving to improve my game,  I also work really hard in school and put education and character first.
