Personal Statement

I have been playing basketball since I was 4 years old. Since I first stepped onto the court, I have aspired to play basketball at the collegiate level. I have strong ball handling skills, shooting skills and exceptional leadership skills. I have a strong basketball IQ and have experience playing against the top competition in Wisconsin, Minnesota, Michigan, and Iowa through my association with Wisconsin Academy Basketball and Starz Elite.

Off the court, I am ranked 22 out of the 301 students in my class. At this point, my cumulative GPA is 3.84. I also enjoy doing volunteer work with my grandparents delivering meals to the elderly.

My short term goal is to attend the highest level college and play basketball. I intend to continue pushing myself to reach my potential in both areas. I am open to all colleges that look into me and hope I can find the right fit.
