Personal Statement
My goal as a student-athlete is to put my education above all with lacrosse as a close second. I want to succeed in college while playing for and being part of a college lacrosse team. I would consider myself to be an above average student with an SAT score of 1200 and a player who can take criticism. What sets me apart from others is how much time, effort, and leadership I truly put into the sport. I have been playing since about seventh grade and over the past few years I have stepped up and became a much better player and individual. I currently lead my team in goals and have been a starting player since I was a freshman. I will be very honest for a moment, Bellefonte Area High School (the school I go to and play for) lacrosse is ranked very close to worst in the country. We have very few star players and the program is just now starting to get back on its feet. It is very difficult losing almost every game every year and I personally believe that I am a leader on this team and am helping us get back on track. I am a good candidate for almost any division two or three school because I possess the proper characteristics, academics, and athleticism in order to play college lacrosse.
