Jessie Londono '16 Recruiting Profile

NCSA Personal Statement

You ask what the big dream is? Such a simple question, with a very complex answer. My field hockey dreams are to compete on a college team that is not only strong and skilled, but also caring and loving. I am a strong leader and I do anything and everything to the best of my ability. You can guarantee that I will always give 110% on and off the field. My skills include strong passes, forward progression, and stick skills. I believe that one should not be allowed to join a team just because of their abilities on the field. A big part of being on a team is being kind and full-hearted. To always help others and to never give up. To not only be inspired, but to inspire those around you. 

My academic goals are to major in criminal justice. I wish to participate in Air Force ROTC and one day join the United States Air Force as a fireman. Through the ROTC Program I feel I will also acquire critical skills needed to play colligiate level field hockey. It will build my obedience and discipline. I am inspired by those who serve our country. They give me the will power to keep going. I wish to serve alongside these heroes, and pay my dues to the beautiful country of the United States.

I feel that there are much more important things than good grades and athletic ability. You should not only strive to be a good student and strong player, but a thoughtful human being. My goals are to bring happiness and to help anyone in need. I want to spread love wherever my life takes me. Joining a field hockey team will give me joy and hopefully more people to call my family. I want to be an ingredient that will bring my team to many victories and memorable moments. I believe that to win is not to succeed. I feel you should never give up. That is how you will forever live as a champion.
