About Zach

How would you briefly describe your gameplay style?

My play style is very fast paced, I like to get out and go on transition. Correct shot selection and best opportunities for our team is vital. I revolve my game a lot around the arch and like to get inside the paint and finish with a floater, kick out, or a quick dump to other teammates. My defense is solid but it’s heart over height with me so I must be consistent from outside as well.

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

I am a very calm person however, on the court I tend to be very loud and aggressive. Communication is extremely important. I thrive on work. I get in the gym every single day and put in work by myself and with my trainer. I have a very high work ethic. Trainer reference available by request.

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

I have been on the high honor roll multiple times and is current again with semester 1 of 2025. I've also been nominated for the nation honors society at my school. Education is first.

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

I have coached both girls and boys flag football. I also do reffing for basketball on the side. I have done park clean ups with my school and helped out with fundraisers and other events. Best Buddies I hold closely. This is very rewarding.

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

The biggest challenge in my life that I have faced would have to be my mother’s recurrent diagnoses of a very rare cancer. 2024 proved to be an extremely difficult year for our family. Others diagnosed include my uncle, both grandmothers and a cousin who is like a brother to my mother. I never give up on any fight!

What type of college are you looking for?

A college that will help me develop not only my basketball skills, but at the same time the real world development. More importantly prepare me for what my future has to bring for myself and others.
