2019 HighlightsPersonal Statement
I have always dreamed of playing Division One baseball. My goals are to continually strengthen my game and aspire to be the best I can. My parents have instilled in me to be a leader on and off the field. I am actively involved in my church youth group, honor society, and supporting my community. I am a utility player and I strive to do my best in any position in which I play. I feel that I can make my team stronger and encourage my teammates to do their very best. I currently play football, basketball, and baseball. Although I am in seventh grade, I know what it takes to lead a team. My coaches depend on me when the game is on the line and my biggest asset is being calm under pressure. In football I play quarterback and linebacker. In basketball I play power forward. I enjoy playing all three sports and getting to spend time with my teammates. My parents tell me everyday that my grades are very important and that sports will teach me lessons that will last a lifetime. I look forward to talking to you soon.
