My name is Talyn Short, and I play for Platte Valley High School in Colorado. As a Junior, I averaged 83.1 rushing yards per game, nine touchdowns, one fumble recovery, 123 carries, 748 rushing yards, 1,030 all-purpose yards, and 115 all-purpose yards per game. I had 35 solo and 71 total tackles on defense for the season.
What position(s) do you play? What do you view as your strengths?
I am a 5'7" 155lb running back, and my strength is being a great leader as I was a captain of the team. I am good at seeing the field and opening holes. I pride myself on my speed, agility, and football IQ. I am also a good blocker.
What type of school are you looking for?
I am looking for a school that can offer an athletic scholarship and a great business and finance program, but I am open to all levels of college. I'd like to go somewhere where I have family, which is all over the United States. I prefer warm weather and an excellent academic program. I am looking for a school that can see me as an asset to their program early in my career.
What are your interests outside of Football?
Outside of football, I enjoy playing basketball and running track. I am also a member of FBLA at our school and made it to the State Finals. I enjoy hanging out in social settings with my family and friends. I am very passionate about my health and fitness.
