Personal Statement
Hi, my name is Chase Stephens. I am a 6'4", 280 lbs offensive tackle for the Prestonsburg Blackcats. I am a Senior at Prestonsburg High School in Prestonsburg, Kentucky. My goal is to attend college where I can continue to play football while I earn my Bachelor degree in engineering.
I work hard and and I am dedicated to the sport of football. I give 110% in every practice and every game. I am Captain of the team and part of the starting varsity. I am a versatile and diverse player as I have played several positions on both sides of the ball. I want to continue to play at the next level and further enhance my abilities.
My academics are just as important to me. I have have a 3.5 GPA and very few absences. I am part of the National Honor Society and in the top 25% of my graduating class. I have scored a 21 on my last attempt for the ACT but know I can do better and will continue to study to improve my score.
Outside of school and sports, I have volunteered the last four years to the local Salvation Army with their annual "Bell Ringing" fundraiser and Christmas Basket distribution. I have participated in a 5k run for the Riverview Health Care, a local nursing home facility, and have helped local senior citizens centers in various ways.
