Personal Statement
I am a 6"4 Shooting Guard with a 6"3 wingspan from Albuquerque, NM. I am currently rated #5 in the state of NM going into the 2018-2019 season. Varsity Player for 3 years, All-District Honorable Mention in 2018 with Academic All-District; GPA of 3.8. I excelled at cross-country which gives me incredible endurance on the court. I can make 20+ points during games and average 3 steals a game due to my speed and arm span. Jerry Mullen, September 2018, rates as"Long/wiry. Has ball skills. Gets to rim/finishes. Catches/shoots 3 or pulls up w-range. Scorer! Lacks bulk/body but work in wt room can fix. Intriguing." Area Codes 505 recruiting comments, " One of the top prospects in New Mexico, 2019 Lucas Jordan, definite college prospect & Athletic, good showing at the NM top 120 Showcase". I have tremendous potential to make an impact on a college program on campus and on the court.
I am looking for medium to large institution, in a larger city where I can find the right balance between the classroom and the court. I am open to geographical location but would benefit from a Western Exchange School. I have interest in criminology and forensics. I am a highly coachable, flexible athlete. I listen with the intent to improve my skills. I pick up really quickly and have a high basketball IQ. I am a strong team player. I tend to pull a team together. I have goals to continue to grow academically and impact a team where I am needed at any competition level.
