Personal Statement
I am passionate about baseball. I have set a goal to play baseball beyond high school. I like to see myself as a hard working athlete and student. In the classroom I enjoy learning and succeeding in all of my classes. My goal for academics is cracking the 15 mark for class rank. I am sitting right now at 20 and I am working hard and I am committed everyday to reach my goal. Out on the field, I am willing to receive feedback to make me better. I like to see myself as a coachable athlete and a team player. I have set many goals for baseball and academics in high school as well as for my future college. As a high honors student, I am taking challenging classes. When I am a junior, I will continue challenging myself in taking AP classes. Last year, I was one of six students of the whole school earning half of an academic credit for completing 75 hours of community service. I take pride in giving back to my community. On and off the baseball field, I am a role model to my younger brother and other younger athletes who have the same love for baseball. Having a passion for baseball and academics, I realize there is a balance and sacrifices will have to be made. I am willing to put effort and discipline in both academics and baseball to make myself a better student and athlete.
