To whom it may concern:

It is my immense pleasure to write this letter of recommendation for Lucas Duda. I have known
Lucas for over three years and have built a great relationship that will last for a lifetime. Lucas is
a 3 year varsity player that has overcome constant adversity. Last year Lucas received the
Coaches Award for his hard work on the football field, and this year he will receive first team all
league honors. Both awards reflect his hard work, dedication, and commitment to excellence.

Lucas is a very driven, hard working student athlete. After getting to know Lucas, he has shown
leadership qualities that will help him in his near future. His work ethic and attitude are
respected by many who know him well. Lucas can be described as a thoughtful, hardworking
individual that will accomplish anything he sets his mind to.

Next year Lucas plans on attending a four year university and will major in Business
Administration. Lucas’s academic career has ranked him on top of his class and will graduate
with honors along with over a 4.0 G.P.A. The skills that he’s gained at El Capitan High School,
along with his leadership characteristics will lead him to success with his journey in College.

I am privileged to have met and coached Lucas. If I may provide you with any further
information in your consideration for Luca Duda please feel free to contact me.

Sincerely,

Adrian Hurtado
