Personal Statement
Basketball has always been a big part of my life. I am the oldest (by 30 seconds) of triplets. We all enjoy sports, especially basketball. We are very tall and catch the attention of people. I am 6’2” with shoes, Lexie is 6’1”, and the youngest, Austin, is towering at 6’8”. I also have an older sister, Cassie, who is a mere 5’9”. Our family is very close and provides an excellent support system.
My parents work in healthcare. I think I may want to as well. It's too early to know for sure, but I am interested in becoming a nurse anesthetist or physician.
Outside of school, I have played at the club level for many years and I skill train regularly. My dad is a self-proclaimed exercise fanatic and gym rat. I am fortunate to have a full size gym in our house. Our family spends lots of time together strength training and exercising. Having a gym accessible has been a huge blessing during the Covid-19 quarantine.
My club team (Bluestar St. Louis Silvey) is impressive. Everyone is so talented. We have a strong team bond and build up one another to perform at a higher level. We all hope to play ball in college and chase our dreams. I am excited about the future, but I’m also enjoying the ride!
