Personal Statement
Whoever this may concern or interest:
My name is Ethan Ballard and I'm an aspiring athlete from Gosnell, Arkansas. I love baseball, but my true passion is football because it is the only sport that I actually see myself being able to be productive at the next level. I am currently a Sophmore at Gosnell Highschool where I am a starting offensive tackle, fullback, and middle linebacker. These positions are contradictory to my profile but thats because my highschool needs me on the offensive line due to a huge lack of lineman. My true position is at runningback because no defenseive player scares me or ever will. I'll work my heart out for any coach that would believe in me as well as keep my GPA at 4 at the same time. I often get praised for my work ethic, but i know there is still room for improvement. I know that in my days in highschool ive worked really hard acidemically and physically, but that doesn't mean i should stop. I'm pepared to work my butt off regardless of the situation. Runningback is my true position that I love but to get in to a D-1 school i would do anything to play. Safety, special teams, you name it. I'm 100% willing to learn and give it my all. I also believe in reaching that next level in my game as well as mentally. My goal is to strive for domination mentally and physically so I can be above the rest of the game, and someday reach my ultimate goal of playing collegiate football.
