Personal Statement
My name is Brennen Banks, and I am a Senior at Evansville High School. I am a point guard who has loved the game of basketball and has been dedicated to it since I was in 4th grade. My goal since I was young was to play at an elite level while receiving a college degree. I believe that knowledge is power, that is why I have always put school first and sports second.
One of my strongest attributes is that I have a positive effect anywhere I am, from the classroom to the court. I always try to encourage and insert positive energy. I believe that as a leader, one needs to have that positive attitude at all times. What separates me from other recruits is my ability to make others better around me, while still wanting to increase my basketball IQ. I have a very intense work ethic. I never let someone outwork me because of my competitive nature.
I take my education very seriously. I work as hard in the classroom as I do on the court, maintaining an A and B average while taking many advanced classes. I know that I want to do something in the field of Business, so I attend classes that I believe will set me up to succeed.
