Personal Statement

My goal is to attend college to gain a degree in Physical Therapy or Kinesiology, while earning a athletic scholarship to play football. I want to stay around sports any way that I can, whether it's playing, coaching, training or rehabilitating athletes. I'm a good candidate for any school because I'm a team oriented player who leads by example on and off the field.  I play both quarterback and Wide Receiver for the Midwest BOOM 7 on 7 team. I am willing and able to play any position if I am a good fit for it on the team, I will do my best day in and day out to be the best I can at that position. I love to put in extra work developing my skills both on the field, in the weight room, and in the classroom.  I'm a Christian who believes in the values of family.  I believe in helping others by putting their needs in front of my own. I also believe that everyone on a team is important. Every player on the roster from the top to bottom has a roll that helps the team become successful. I'm 3rd all time in career rushing yards, 1st in career rushing touchdowns and career passing yards at Sterling High School. Also receiving 1st team All State and 1st team All Conference along with NIB-12 Conference Offensive Player of The year. Proverbs 16:3 "Commit to the Lord whatever you do, and your plans will succeed."
