Personal Statement
I simply want to be the very best that I can be. I assure you that no matter what, I am going to work to be my best. I want to play defensive end or tight end in college, but I am willing to do anything to help out the team that I am on. My ultimate goal is to learn how to be the best man that I can be. Yes, playing sports in college and going to an academic selective college are both very important to me, but I want my college experience to be about more than just being successful on the field and in the classroom. I want it to be about learning lessons that are going to help me in life. Also, I am very much looked up to. I want affect the people that I am around in a positive way. I want to drive them to be their best on any given day.
Next year I will be honorary #17 on my high school team. This is the highest honor a senior could get being on the football team. Each year a senior who is an impact player on the field and a leader on the team will wear the #17 jersey. (However, I will not actually wear it due to the rule that an O-Lineman can't wear an eligible number.) This past year I was 1st team All-State Defensive Lineman in DIIAA in Tennessee. I do not want to stop there though. With one more year left in high school, I hope to continue developing in my areas of weakness and master my role as a player on my team.
