Personal Statement
There are several things that I believe would make me a an excellent teammate and student at the collegiate level. For one, I care about my community. I volunteer at the local hospital and help special needs kids to give back to those that are less fortunate or able to participate in activities they enjoy. Doing these things also humbles me and reminds me how fortunate I am. Athletically, I have not reached my full potential yet. I am still growing and maturing physically and as a young man. Since the end of my junior year I have grown 2 inches and gained about 20 pounds in muscle. I work hard to improve in all aspects of my game, my versatility on the court and my leadership abilities. I am constantly challenging myself to improve my skills and understanding of the game I love to play. Academically I pride myself in taking classes that challenge me to learn and think. I strive to make good grades and maintain a high GPA. I would like to play basketball at the next level of competition while also using the opportunity as a way to further my education and allowing me to pursue a health sciences degree.
