Personal Statement
I have been playing basketball since the age of 5. I've always wanted to play at the "next" level. I set high goals for myself. I practice on my own hours on end with anyone who wants to play (age is not a deterrent). I'm driven to succeed. Many coaches have commented to my parents that they enjoy having me because I am a very coachable kid with a high basketball IQ as well as the hardest worker on the team(s). I believe I bring a lot of positive energy and positive emotion to the team(s) I play on.
I work just as hard on my studies as I do on the court. I help with underclassmen on the court in practice as well as assist middle school players during games and practices, encouraging them along and demonstrating a good attitude and positivity.
My goal is to attend a college where I can apply myself in the classroom and on the basketball court. I am open to any and all options and want to ultimately find the right college match at the level of competition that best fits me.
"Face the odds of the unthinkable, if you train for the impossible then nothing is."
