Personal Statement
- My name is Shareef Goodwin, I live in Fresno, CA and attend Edison High School. I have a deep passion for basketball, ita kept me out of trouble for all my life. There is a lot I need to work on, but I love the fact I still need to get better cause to me if you choose whether to work on it or not it shows a lot about your character.
- The biggest thing to me I have to admit it I put a lot of effort in to school and study for every test and try to understand the homework, I always fall short somewhere. Most of the time it brings me down and I feel like I'll never get it, but it's the fight in me that doesn't let those thoughts get any further than just thoughts. My junior year, last year, I found time to get in good with a tutor and made a lot of progress with my social and learning skills and I basically wanted to mature my self for the college lifestyle. I just want to make it to a nice college and do what I do best witch is play basketball. While I'm there I'd love to major in psychology, it's been something i have been thinking of since I started high school.
- I define myself on the court as the spark of the team, whenever we would need a defensive stop I'd be the one to do that. I jus love defense so much, I try to get all four other players to bring the intensity level high as possible on defense. I also picture myself with the ball in my hands, I don't mind spotting up or having someone else play point but I feel like a general when I have the ball and calling plays it's just a comfort to me.
