Personal Statement
My name is Elijah Onks and I eat, sleep and breathe football. I want to attend a college where my passion and dedication on the field will be balanced with a curriculum that will help me attain my goals. Growing up in a single-parent household I've learned firsthand the benefits of hard work and resiliency. I've had great coaches and mentors who have advised and guided me, so I have a strong desire to help others in my future career. I aspire to be a role model and to excel in physical activities. Being the oldest child in the house means I have to take on a leadership role on a daily basis. This often translates to me being a leader in the multiple sports in which I have participated: track, football, soccer and basketball. I enjoy the sense of accomplishment when I overcome challenges both on and off the field.
