Personal Statement

My name is Quinn Niemann, I am 6'2", 200 lb. pro-style  quarterback entering my senior year at Lake Minneola High School in Minneola, FL. 

When I first asked my parents to play football, I did not know what I was getting into. First off, I hated it, I dreaded going to practice, but my parents had always told me that if I started a sport, I would always see it through to the end of the season because I had made a commitment to my teammates. Thank goodness they made me finish out that first season because halfway through that season a spark of passion formed inside me, and I became obsessed with football! What started that spark you ask? How I started to understand the strategies in the game of football. Very early I learned that an advantage I would have over other players, in football and every sport I would try, and play would be a combination of my skills, my athleticism, my work ethic, my ability to quickly see and understand the game’s strategy.

My competitiveness, work ethic, drive, heart, and thirst for knowledge have helped me become a very good high school athlete, but I do not want to stop there. I know I have more to learn, and I am looking to get better every single day because if you do not train your body and mind together you become an unbalanced player. Great players can read the defense, see the double-team, see the stunt, and see the blitz before they happen. I want to be a great player, so I need to be balanced.

I am looking for a program where I can continue to develop my physical and mental skills as a QB, as a student, and as a person.
