Personal Statement
What makes me a good candidate for your team is that I am very coachable due to my passion for running track. I do not argue with coaches about how I'm being trained. I lead by example rather than speeches because visible energy is contagious and if people see effort they want to exude more energy. What makes me different on the track is that I have a long stride with a fast turnover and I have a quick and explosive block start, these attributes allow the 200m and the 400m to come easy to me. On the academic side, I currently have a 3.3 GPA and I have not had an issue with being ineligible. I care about my grades because if anything were to happen that would stop me from playing sports competitively I will still have knowledge to fall back on.
