High jump champion, placing 1st overall, and 3rd all time! Phone: 3317580850 Email: browntraevon@yahoo.com

Can you provide a brief description of your mentality or personality?

I am a pure team player and leader! I make everyone around me better by not just getting them involved in the game, but my work ethic is contagious. I make 75% of my team take those extra hours to put in more work, put up shots, lift weights, watch film together. I love basketball and all that comes with it.

Are you involved in any clubs, organizations, or have you received any non-sport awards?

I am involved in an organization called O.T.M (on the move). This organization empowers the people in the community to work together to feed the homeless, clean garbage off of our streets, clothe those in need, and simply give back to those who may not have what you have.

What skills or qualities have you developed, such as leadership, teamwork, or community service?

I’ve learned how to manage a team, outside of basketball. Which helps me relate to my coach when I’m on the court because I understand that if I follow my coaches vision we can make adjustments and come out on top together versus me trying to do my own thing, while my coach has something totally different in mind.

Have you faced any significant challenges? If so, please describe.

I have faced significant challenges. I embrace them and I only expect my challenges to get harder as I work harder. I am a national champion at the highest level of AAU. I am a varsity athlete since freshman year at a very prestigious high school. New challenges make me work even harder, and I can’t wait to be on the most challenging stage in the world showing off my talent

What type of college are you looking for?

I am looking for a program that will allow me to grow into a professional athlete. I am going to bring 150% of my effort to the table with a mindset that my coach is correct 100% of the time. I will also do my own work outside of what we do in the program. I believe I am the hardest worker on the planet, as well as the most coachable player. I need a coach that believes in me as well.
