About Johntay

How would you briefly describe your gameplay style?

Quick off the line, excellent in deep routes but quick in handoffs too. Focused and locked in.

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

Often quiet but easily make friends. I stay focused and my happy place is on the field or track. Once I'm in season I am focused mentally on that and ways to improve daily. I take sports seriously. I'm confident in my abilities and often my own hardest critic. Mental health is so important so I make sure to pay attention to that.

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

Have worked part time since 15. Currently taking summer college courses. Crosby Scholar. NAACP teen member. Three time MVP in track. All Conference in track two years in a row.

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

I'm quiet so I don't always see myself as a leader but team mates seem to gravitate to me and ask me for advice. I do want to create a program for teams for team building activities away from the field.

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

In high school I went through three different coaches in three years and lost a really good coach that I connected with well. We had a loosing season. One game we won and I got State Farm Player of the week, the rest of the season was not given opportunities I felt I could have helped us win. Hard decision to leave the school and my friends my senior year to play for a coach that believes in me

What type of college are you looking for?

Division 1 or competitive D2 that believes in putting in the work to mold me into someone that can continue to grow and develop into a great player. Looking for Computer Major. One that also has a track team.
