About Javier
How would you briefly describe your gameplay style?
I am a spark. I am very technical and a precise tackler. I fly around and can be very explosive.
Can you provide a brief description of your mentality or personality?
My mentality is always do your job and go make a play. Be an energizer be a spark the team needs. My personality, I like to make things fun and enjoyable. I don't like seeing people sad or upset when playing a sport they love. I'm the guy that will make sure everyone is enjoying there work!
Are you involved in any clubs, organizations, or have you received any non-sport awards?
Tam a dancer and wrestler. I have danced for many rappers including Fat Joe, Wyclef, Aboogie, and more. I have also danced for the Knicks for 6+ years. I have been a professional since I was 9. In wrestling, 1 am a 2x district finalist and a district champ last year. I lost 1-0 in region semis and didn't get to reach my goal of states last year. Still more to come.
What skills or qualities have you developed, such as leadership, teamwork, or community service?
Last year at Long Branch I had to embrace a role of being a leader as a junior. Our team felt like it was falling apart, people weren't listening, coaches weren't saying anything. I felt like as the voice of the defense I had to embrace being a leader. I would teach, watch a lot of film and be a nerd so l can tell my defense and help all my teammates understand the game.
Have you faced any significant challenges? If so, please describe.
Being an undersized line backer was my biggest challenge. I knew if I had to succeed I had to put in extra work and play like I am not undersized. I watched a lot of film, worked on my technique a lot and I flew around like I was a right sized LB. I ended the year with 100+ tackles and 10+ tfls. People said I was too small, but I had one of the best seasons in the shore at line backer this past yr
What type of college are you looking for?
Any college where I can play the game I love most.
