Personal Statement
I started playing basketball when I was 6 years old and it has been my focus ever since; besides my faith, family, and grades. I have a passion for the game of basketball and I want to be able to further my athletic and academic career in college. My favorite sports moments are being in competitive atmospheres, on good teams consistently, and be surrounded by good coaches who want to see me succeed. My AAU team has helped me with my basketball skills but being a better person as well. It’s teaching me what it means to work hard and how I have to earn the things that I want.
My goal academically is to end high school within the top 5% of my class. At the end of my freshman year I was in the top 7%. I’m not too far off right now but I’m going to stay dedicated to achieving my goal. One of my athletic goals is to earn scholarships for either my academics and/or athletics so that I can have my education paid for and perform at the collegiate level.
