Title: current prep player
Post by: IceTrimble on September 05, 2008, 01:27:33 AM
Hello I'm currently at Jireh Prepatory School in Monroe, North Carolina. I'ma 5'8, 165 lb. Cornerback. I run a 4.5 and bench 245. Currently going to the prepatory school to get my grades and SATs higher. My senior year in high school at Menchville High was 65 total tackles, 32 solo, 5 forced fumbles, 3 pass deflections, and 1 interception and was peninsula district honorable mention. Honestly going here to get my grades up but would be interested in any school that would be interested in me, so if you know a coach that would be interested or your someone interested please reply back.

This is not really going to be an answer, but are you Jeremy's brother. If you aren't and don't understand, don't worry about it. My suggestion would be to look at schools near you with decent programs like Christopher Newport, Washington & Lee or Bridgewater.

IceTrimble,

Just wanted to relate something seen on a fellow poster's signature tag, the little sayings seen at the bottom of our posts.  Don't recall the poster's handle, but the saying goes something like this, "Our real prize is not in never falling, but getting back up when we do."

I think it is admirable that you are improving your position, and wish you the best in your endeavor.  That's the attitude to have and will only improve your prospects.  Beyond improving your grades, a good course or plan of action as you have intimated is to prepare yourself for the standardized tests, ACT and SAT, many schools use to gauge potential.  Whether done through self study or should you have the opportunity to take professional test preparation course, this piece of evidence can help you and your eventual school find the appropriate fit.

In the Division 3 world we like to call ourselves student-athletes, in that order.  Persevere.

I'm not sure how it works in NC, but  going the JC route may also help for two years.
