Personal Statement
Hey! My name is Travon Rumph. I'm 17 years old. I'm in the 11th grade at Manatee High School in Bradenton, Florida. I'm 5’10 180 pounds and still getting bigger, stronger, and faster each and every day. I started on varsity my sophomore year. It wasn't easy but with hard work and dedication anything is possible. I'm from Bradenton Florida. I have 3 younger brothers. I'm their role model and I try my best to lead by example. Everything I do is for them. I someday want them to say I want to be just like my older brother. I've been playing football since I was 8 years old and my drive for football hasn't stopped. My brothers motivate and I wanting to be the best drive me the most. It's 3 of them so when anything happens on the field they let me know. I love them all and I want them to be proud of me. My mom motivates me in the classroom. She tells me daily to stay on top of my grades because without outstanding grades I won’t be able to attend college let alone play football. By the time I graduate I want to have a GPA of 3.5. I just want to play D-1 football and anywhere is fine with me. I want coaches to know that I am hard working and dedicated to being the best teammate and player. I want to major in computer engineering. I believe that good is the enemy of great and I strive to be great in both the classroom and on the football field.
