Cristian Espinoza '17 Recruiting Profile

Faith, Determination, and Attitude. The three words that I keep in mind every single day.

• I allow my faith to guide me into a better understanding of inspiring others through actions every opportunity I get.
• My determination pushes me to surpass any boundary that is set forth by not only meeting goals but going way beyond them.
• Finally, my attitude expresses the amount of passion I have going through life and how I do everything I desire with my heart on my sleeve. 

When it comes to academics and athletics, I live by these three traits in order to push myself. They all go hand in hand when it comes to applying them to academics and sports for me.

I look at a play the same way I look at a class assignment; with an immense amount of passion to be successful with what I've been assigned to do. I determine myself to exceed on a test as well as I do in a game, setting my mind on a certain standard to reach and then passing it. And finally, I rely on faith to guide me through 4 quarters like I would rely on it to guide me through a semester.

I believe that these three traits, are what separate me from others. They make my character unique, in the sense of who wants it more or who has the greater willingness to win.
