Personal Statement
My major goal in life right now is to finish college with a degree in mechanical engineering and then use that knowledge from college to obtain a position in an engineering field where I can use my knowledge and skills to benefit others. Along with this goal in college I would also like to continue my soccer career that I started when I was 6 years old. I have always loved playing soccer and this love for soccer has allowed me to become a very good player and teammate. Throughout my career I have won multiple travel team tournaments, state cups, and as a varsity athlete at the Portsmouth Abbey School my team won our division’s league and advanced to the New England Prep School Athletic Council Class C Tournament in which we advance to the semifinals. As a senior for the 2014 season I am one of two varsity captains and I hope to lead my team back to the top of our league. My perfect dream for college would be to pursue a degree in mechanical engineering and also play for your soccer team.
Thanks
