Personal Statement
I am a football player at Serra High School. I fell in love with the sport my freshman year and I realize that 4 years isn't enough. I would love to extend my football career beyond high school. Being able to play football at a collegiate level allows me to accomplish my end goal which is to graduate with a degree that will help me succeed in life. I understand that only a few players are offered the chance to play at the collegiate level and I aspire to be one of them. I am willing to put in the work in order to become that player.
I understand what it means to be a football player. That means I have to put work on and off the field and in the class. I am pushing myself with challenging classes and striving to maintain a high grade in all of them. Being able to keep a high GPA means that I am able to learn and I am teachable. In addition to being teachable, I am also coachable. I understand that I will never be perfect but I can strive for perfection. I am a team leader and I lead by example. If there is anything that I am doing wrong, I will fix it. I will strive to get better and stronger. I understand that there will be someone else out there that is better than me. That doesn't mean that I will stop competing with them because you can only get better by competing against someone better than you.
