Personal Statement
Every since I can remember, I've loved Football. I have been playing since I was 7 years old. Whenever anyone asked me what I wanted to be when I grew up, my answer was always, " a professional football player. It is a dream of mine to be able to play football at the college level. From football, I have learned discipline, respect, and how to be a leader. I am a member of my team "Apollo 18", a group of players selected by his teammates that help make team decisions that benefit the team. I also have the honor of being voted team Captain for the upcoming season. This was particularly special, because I was voted Captain by the graduating seniors. The fact that they thought so highly of me truly humbles me. When I'm off the football field, I am wrestling at a varsity level, and I also run varsity track . In track, and field, I participate in the following events: the 100 meter, 200 meter, long jump, and high jump. I also volunteer in my community, as I feel that it is a necessary part of being a true leader, and it is very gratifying. As I enter my senior year, I am planning on challenging myself academically by improving my GPA, and making the honor roll. I am looking forward to the challenge.
