- 2015 Highlights
Personal Statement
My collegiate goals and aspirations are to attend a school with a good Engineering or Health Sciences program, as this is my current interest. Another one of my goals, which is just as important, is to play Varsity sports(Basketball or Track), in a competitive program, during my years in college. I want my college experience to be well rounded, academically, athletically and a overall good fit.
I am a good candidate for a college team because I love the game, I'm extremely competitive and I enjoy playing! I have been playing basketball since I was 9 and through out those years I have played about every position. I began running track during off season of my freshman year and grew to like the individual competition of this sport as well. As a multiple position guard I am always mentally as well as physically playing while on the court. I am a pass first guard, patient with the plays, providing strength on offense/defense and I have with quick hands and feet. I am very athletic with an aggressive style of playing that usually takes my opponents by surprise. I use my ability to jump, to rebound the ball very well and I use my speed to steal the ball. I understand the concept of "team", and as team captain, in both sports, my sophomore year, I learned how to set the tempo and when to step in and lead by example. The difference between me and other recruits academically, is that I am use to maintaining my grades while playing multiple sports. It has become second nature and a personal standard to work hard on and off the court. I also have a positive attitude, strong practice ethics and enough self-motivation to always stay positive and focused while encouraging my teammates to do the same. My favorite quote is: "The only person you have to be better than is the person you were yesterday.-Unknown". I believe all these aspects help make me a good candidate for any college team.
