Personal Statement
I have always been motivated by the desire to compete at the highest level. This is true in both my academic and athletic life. In the area of softball, I have a passion to compete with the best so I can be challenged to always improve and motivate others. I really enjoy being a catcher as it affords constant involvement on the field and allows me to participate in the leadership of the team. In academics, I want to succeed at the highest level of achievement, knowing that I will be ready to take on whatever challenges I will face in the real world. My experiences have taught me how to focus on and succeed at everyday challenges and responsibilities. Softball provides me with the opportunity to be a part of a team; helping to succeed, motivate and lead. In life, success or failure is important, but knowing that I gave 100% is the most important.
