Personal Statement
I am a senior at Kaneland High School in Maple Park, IL. I trust that you will find my skills and statistics promising, and that I will add to the tradition of excellence you have brought about in your program. I have been a starter throughout my high school career as a defensive back and my senior year I will start as a defensive back as well as a wide receiver. I have been on special teams every year as well. I have also excelled in a variety of other sports that have added to and reinforced my performance on the football field. I have been intentional and successful in developing my leadership skills within my team. I am focused on leading by example and remaining supportive and encouraging to other teammates and am often turned to for advice.
My peer leadership has been consistently recognized by my coaches. I believe success happens on purpose, and I am committed to building a bright future and pushing myself to be the best I can be. I have played football for as long as I can remember, and more than anything, I love the game. Should I be afforded the opportunity to play football for your program this is the dedication, leadership, and passion that will serve you well. I look forward to playing for you in the fall!
Sincerely, Isaiah Baerenklau
