Hello world my name is Taylor Mokris and I am from Charlotte, NC. I am a 6'5'' 175 lb. WG. I also can play the WF position which I will probably play
this year for my new school, Providence Day High School in Charlotte. Last year I was at 2A Charlotte Catholic. I was the conference player of the yr.
runner up and averaged 21.4 points and 7.6 rebounds per contest during my sophomore year. I switched schools because I believe that I needed to improve
my game to play at the collegiate level. I have one of the best coaches in the state many people say in David Carrier. He pushes me to my max and wants the best out of me every workout. This summer I played for the 16 and under national champion Charlotte Royals. I have been playing with the Royals since 10 and under. I also got moved up to play in the travel team league for the Royals and went to various tournaments including Boo Williams, Kentucky Bluegrass, and Nike Peach Jam. Winning the national championship in the
16 and under league was unbelieavable expierence. We also won the state championship also. As for school last year, I made ALL Mecklenburg, and was all conference and MVP of my team and the BB&T XMas tournament. I feel my strengths are shooting, smarts on the court, and overall leadership and scoring. I love to put the ball in the hoop and love to play the game with passion. I also believe I am a good passers. As for the weaknesses, I need to work on my conditioning and defense. If I can work on those my final two yrs and polish my offensive game, I feel I can go mid to high major Division one, which has been my goal since the 7th grade. I like the ACC and IVY
leagues, but right now have no leaders, just waiting the process out. I also take pride in my schoolwork, and have a 3.8 GPA. I work hard at school and
believe it comes before my basketball. I took the SAT as a sophomore and got a 1080, but I was not happy about that. I should have done better. Well this is
me and if you need to contact me for any reason my email address is tmokris22@aol.com. My goals this year are to make the state championship
game, play great against Oak Hill and such ompetition, and to win games most of all. Also I would like to make all mecklenburg, player of the year, and
all conference. If I can do all these things, I will be happy. It will not be easy, but I am working hard in the summer and preseason. Until then thanks
for reading about me and have a great day.
