Personal Statement
I am a career driven person who first would love to go to a first rate university to get the best possible education. I would use that same drive to pursue a basketball career at the collegiate level. I have been playing basketball since I was six years old. My father is an athletic director, so I have been around the gym for many hours on a daily basis. I know that playing in college is a once in a lifetime opportunity that could change my whole life.
My strength on the basketball court is my court sense. I want my teammates to know that they will get the ball if they are open and if needed, initiate points. I have strong ball handling skills, soft hands, and a high basketball IQ. I am a team leader and try to lead by example while also encouraging my teammates. I am very coachable and strive to be one of the hardest working players and one of the hardest working recruits you’ll find.
In the classroom, I study hard and maintain a high GPA. I have started my senior project on pursuing my dream in the medical field.
I have a very strong family support system that will continue to support at the collegiate level if given this opportunity. I hope to become a great role model to all my peers and make my parents proud.
