Personal Statement
I am an athletic, high IQ basketball player with a good work ethic, drive and determination. I have played basketball for pretty much my whole life. I love the game. It is my dream to obtain a good college education and still play the game I love. I work hard on the court and in the classroom. I strive to be the best everyday. I am the type of player who is the first in the gym and the last to leave. I have been a team captain on most of the teams I have played on and and have used those experiences to become a good leader on and off the court. I am a lead by example type player. I consider my strongest attributes to be my leadership skills, heart, drive and determination. I put the team first before me. I am a good shooter who can handle the ball and create my own shot. I have good vision and am able to see the court well, which allows me to get my teammates good looks at the basket. I am a very competitive person and give nothing less than 100% every time I step on the court. I am open to attending school at all athletic levels and in all states and regions. My goals are to make an impact on a team and put a team in the best possible position to win. I would love to attend a school that would give me an opportunity to play and get a quality education. Off the court, i work hard in the classroom and volunteer at many of my school events, religious events, and in the community. I am an executive member of my school's leadership program and student council as well as many of the clubs at my school. In my Junior year i received an award for Outstanding Excellence in Leadership. I also volunteer my time to help coach my school's freshman basketball team as well as our school's junior varsity basketball team. I have also helped coach basketball at Steve Nash youth basketball leagues and at camps for younger basketball players through my Club Team.
