Personal Statement
A team always needs to be led by an influential leader who puts the team above himself, and I am that type of leader. As a team captain, I strive to lead by example for my brothers to achieve success for the team and the coaches. I started playing football when I was 8 years old as a defensive end up until middle school and transitioned to offense as a quarterback, tight end and wide receiver. I believe that my leadership skills and my willingness to learn will allow me to be an asset as a team member. Sports are a key role in my life, but academics play an even bigger role. I work really hard not only on the field, but towards the classroom as well. I have a solid 3.5 GPA, and 24 on the ACT. I am working hard to improve in my academics as well as my performance on the field. I would like the opportunity to play football at a college institution that will allow me to contribute my skills as an athlete and as a student.
