Personal Statement
My name is Ryland Clark III. I have high goals both basketball wise and academically. Both are something that I work very hard on. Being brought up by two parents that are always working hard to provide for me and having to deal with their jobs, made me the hard worker I am today. I can not be lazy, take a day off or cheat a rep at any point because I don't want to cheat myself and I can be that much better. I have been playing basketball as long as I can remember. I’ve played other sports but there was always something special about basketball that made me love the game. Through basketball I have learned that I can do whatever I put my mind to. Once I put my mind to something and work on it I can do it. Something that has always kept me humble and hungry is my desire to be the best and better than whoever I play on both sides of the court (offense and defense). I can’t be complacent with where I am or average, I always want to be better. With my hard work on and off the court I plan on taking my talent and knowledge to the next level.
