Personal Statement
I would like to attend a college with a strong academic program in my career choice and that offers a high caliber men's hockey program. I would be a good addition to a college hockey team because I am seen as a positive leader, am passionate about the sport and enjoy being part of a team. I am dedicated to improving my game every time I step on the ice, for myself and my teammates. Some of my hockey strengths are my ability to see the ice and deliver the puck to the open player, speed, accelerating out of small areas and turning what looks like nothing into something. One piece of advice I received from a coach when I was a Mite was to keep trying to set up my teammates because eventually they would be able to catch the pucks I passed and make the play. This advice has helped me tremendously throughout my hockey career thus far and it is a very rewarding experience to be part of that play that comes together. My passion and personal goals for the game of hockey and my desire to achieve my academic goals will drive me to success on the ice and in the classroom.
