Jovanna Martinucci's Women's Basketball Recruiting Profile

Personal Statement

I attended Robert Morris University in Chicago for the past year. Robert Morris University announced in  September they are permanently closing. I have been informed we are eligible to open our recruitment again without having to go through the transfer policy because Robert Morris has closed permanently. On top of that, I medically redshirted. So I still have four years of athletic eligibility available. I realize these are tough times and it will be hard for me to visit campuses for at least the next month or two. So I will be starting the recruitment process all over again.  At Robert Morris, I was on the Deans' list for both trimesters. As of this time I am getting straight A's in the last trimester. 

I felt that I had a great high school career. After two great seasons at Queen of Peace high school, Queen of peace high school closed. I then attended Nazareth Academy for my junior and senior years. Below are the following basketball achievements:

Team accomplishments included:

Four consecutive 20 win seasons


  • Winning 111 games in four seasons

  • Winning four regional titles in four years

  • Winning two sectional and super-sectional titles 

  • "Back to Back" Downstate trips 

  • Finished 2nd in the state my junior year 

  • Finished 3rd in the state my senior year 

  • Best record in school history at Queen of Peace my sophomore year 

  • Best record in school history at Nazareth Academy 



Individual  Accomplishments:


  • All-Academic Team for three seasons

  • All-Conference three years 

  • All-Area for two years 

  • All-State my senior year 

  • I am in the state playoff record book for career 3pt shooting percentage while downstate

  • Scored over 1,000 points

  • Over 500 steals, 500 assists and 500 rebounds for my four-year career, as a starting point guard who barely came off the floor and never missed a game

  • I was invited to play in the Statewide IBCA coaches Allstar Game. It was a great honor!

I would like to thank Robert Morris for my scholarship and the great experience I have had this year at school. I would especially like to thank Coach Bruhel for the confidence he had in me.

As the daughter of a successful coach, I know what it takes to make a team successful. I've always done all the little things to put the team first and I know I can be a benefit to any program.
