Personal Statement
As a State qualifier my junior year, I gained the confidence I needed to strongly pursue the opportunity of throwing in college. The love of the sport of throwing grew for me because of the connections and friendships I have made through it.
Of personal note, I would describe myself as very stubborn which most people would define as a weakness. I believe I have turned this trait into a skill though. When I put my mind to something, I will do it. I am a multi-sport athlete and play varsity basketball as a post/wing position. I utilize my good physical strength and hand/eye coordination in both sports. I am a leader, one who enjoys encouraging and mentoring younger athletes. My overall love for sports has led to an interest to pursue a major in Physical Therapy/Athletic Training. I believe I would enjoy continue working with athletes as a life long goal.
