What Our Athletes Say

Real stories from athletes who’ve worked with Platform Sports — from first contact to college success.

"I can't thank the team at Platform Sports enough for their incredible support in helping me secure a swimming scholarship at Penn State University. Their personalized guidance, extensive network, and deep understanding of the process made my journey from New Zealand to the US a breeze. If you're a swimmer looking to make a splash across the Pacific, Amrit, Tash, and the team is your ultimate gateway.”

Jay Harrison, Former NCAA Division I Tennis Player
Platform Sports Recruiter

Jay Harrison is a former NCAA Division I tennis player for Seattle University and an emerging coach-mentor for aspiring college athletes. Competing in the Western Athletic Conference, he balanced academics with top-level collegiate tennis experiences that shaped his approach to performance, resilience, and team culture. 

Dane Rogers, NCAA Division I Soccer Player
Seattle University

Dane is from Lake Forest Park, Washington, USA, and is a student-athlete at Seattle University, where he competes on the men’s soccer team. He is majoring in Business Management and is currently in his senior year. Dane began his college journey in 2022, but he didn’t make an appearance on the pitch until 2024. His path hasn’t been straightforward — it’s been built on patience, resilience, and relentless hard work behind the scenes. He’ll be sharing his story of perseverance, what it took to stay ready when opportunities didn’t come immediately, and the mindset required to push through setbacks while competing at the highest level of the American college system.
