Personal Statement
I am a lacrosse goalie. It feels strange writing it without capitalizing the phrase. To me, "lacrosse goalie" is part of my identity, it is who I am. I capitalize my name, and so I should capitalize my sport. Playing Lacrosse for nine years it feels as if the sport is a part of my blood. After two years of playing defense, my coaches searched for a goalie and I stepped up. I have never looked back. Since that day I have been working hard to perform to the best of my ability and will continue throughout the rest of my lacrosse career. I am dedicated and enjoy learning more about the game. On or off the lacrosse field I will do my best and lead the team to success. Looking into the nearby future I see myself studying at a great school playing the sport I love. I look forward to what the future has in store.
