Personal Statement

Hi Coach, 

My name is Alex Peña and I am a Junior at St Joseph Regional High School in Montvale, NJ. I am a starting Varsity Linebacker in the Class of 2025.  We have a strong team and are currently ranked 6th in the state of New Jersey. 

My coaches refer to me as a dynamic, versatile and explosive athlete, with a high football IQ. My teammates look to me to lead the defense, read and react to plays quickly, execute hybrid-blitzing, and relentlessly drive through my opponents. 

My goal is to compete at the next level, with a program that aligns with my values. I thrive in tight knit team that puts the needs of the team before themselves. I am a leader on my team and bring a tremendous intensity and passion.  I believe in hard work, consistency and perseverance. 
In the off-season, you’ll find me training 4 days a week with my Linebacker Coach to further develop my skills, Strength and Conditioning training 6 days a week, and attending various camps and showcases throughout the year. 

I look forward to learning more about your school and program, and any  upcoming camps and roster needs for 2025. 

Thank you for your time and consideration. 

Alex Peña
