FAREED AHMED — UC RIVERSIDE

Senior Fareed Ahmed’s passion for baseball emerged in the first grade after trying out a variety of other sports. To him, recruiting seemed like the next natural step as an athlete. Throughout the recruiting process from his freshman to sophomore year, Ahmed developed a work ethic and strategy that led him to become a UC Riverside Signee. “When it comes to athletes who are trying to play in college, you have to look at it like a business. You have to have something that you need to sell to a college coach because a college coach, his job is to win games, and if you can’t help them win games, you won’t be valuable,” Ahmed said.

Senior Claudia Adam tried out many different sports as an 8-year-old until she found squash. Her coach was her biggest supporter during the recruitment process because he connected her with other coaches and gave her helpful advice. However, Adam did not always plan on playing college squash. It was only when she found a group of players that she liked that made her want to continue playing, and Drexel University had a team environment that appealed to her. Said Adam, “If you’re doing a college sport, do it because you want to, not because you feel like it’s the next step and you have to take it.”

TOMMY KIM — NAVY

Senior Tommy Kim began playing tennis when he was eight years old. He practiced and improved the most during the COVID-19 pandemic, even temporarily moving to Texas to play on the courts. The summer before his junior year, Kim played in two major tournaments in front of the recruiting coach of the United States Naval Academy — his target school. Kim knew that he wanted to attend a military school from the beginning. “I wanted to be in a community where the main goal is service. You’re trying to serve others, and you’re trying to serve your country. I think the Naval Academy [...] is different, where everyone is acting as a group, acting together instead of trying to further their own self-interests,” Kim said.
