Jessica Larsen
We are happy to present Jessica Larsen, a 2012 grad from Poway High School in Poway, California, as our Female Athlete of the Day. The 5’11″ guard/forward has recently committed to Worcester Polytechnic Institute in Worcester, Massachusetts. Jessica carries a very impressive 3.96 GPA and will major in Pre-Med. Her NSR scout, Dave Batzer, says of her, “Her grasp of the game and her attention to the fundamentals makes her a very coachable prospect. She now posses both an inside and outside game allowing any coach a great deal of flexibility with their line up. Her work ethic and desire to improve are probably her best character traits. Jessica will make a fine addition to any college program.” Speaking to college coaches in her personal essay, Jessica says, “I am working hard everyday to become a better basketball player so that my team and I can accomplish our goals. I am considered very coachable and consider myself a smart player who really enjoys the game of basketball. As a post player, I enjoy the physical aspects of the game but I work equally as hard on my outside game. I am a hard worker on the court but I work hard off the court as well. I enjoy school very much and I want to go to an academically strong college that will enable me to reach my personal goals for the future.”
