Personal Statement
One of my biggest dreams has always been to play basketball in college. I started playing organized basketball in the 3rd grade and ever since then that's what my life has been all about. I aspire to go to a college where I can be challenged in the classroom and on the court. I see myself as a hard worker in everything I do, and I always strive to get better.
On the court, I am a team player that plays with a lot of heart. I maintain a positive attitude, and encourage my teammates in the best ways I know how. I am also an aggressive defender, and being left handed I use both hands very well. I can shoot from anywhere on the court, but my favorite shots are from the base line, and the floater down the middle of the paint.
In school, I maintain A's and a high GPA of 4.3. I am an active student in all my classes, and I push myself to maintain my good grades.
Outside of school and basketball I am an active member in my community. Often, I volunteer at local elementary school events. I also volunteer at many sporting events in my area. I strive to make positive impacts on the people around me, and make my family proud.
