Samuel Stark - 20...Samuel Stark 2014...Samuel Stark - Se...Personal Statement
My goal is to be the best I can be both in the classroom and on the field. My faith is first and foremost and I take nothing for granted. Certainly one of my priorities is to obtain a college degree. It has always been a dream of mine since my days in youth football to play at the College level. I am a very dedicated student athlete. Being a leader both on and off the field is something that has always been easy for me and I take that role as leader very serious. I understand that life is short and you have to make the best of every opportunity that is put in your path. That being said I work very hard to achieve my goals. I understand that the difference between excellence and mediocrity is commitment and I am very committed. I have learned that the key ingredient to any kind of success is to never give less than your best.
