Personal Statement
My goals for college are to get a good education so I can support myself and at some point, support my family without relying on anyone else. I am a good candidate because I am a very determined player. If I feel like I am not having a good practice or if I had a bad game, I will ask the coaches to stay after with me and hit me 100 more balls or pitch me 50 more until I feel confident again. I am also very social and get along with almost everybody, but I don't let that distract me from the game or practice. I think these qualities are also what makes me different from the others. I am 100% committed to softball and I don't know what I would do without it. It's my safe space and I know when I am on the field that I can relax and forget about everything else in life, it's my get away. Academics are very important to me as well. LAst year I had all A's or A- with the exeption of math which I am in honors plus a year above my grade level. I am struggling but I am not letting it stop me. I get help with my teacher after school as well as a math tutor that helps me once a week.
