Personal Statement

I want to get a quality education in Sports Management or Business. I enjoy sports and would like to always have it be an important part of my life. I love baseball and playing college baseball is very important to me. I know there are a lot of talented players competing for limited number of spots but I know while talent is important, it takes hard work and sacrifice. No one I know has ever worked harder than I do. I know the key to my success in baseball and in life is to be prepared and be consistent. I am the same person everyday.
