Personal Statement
I am not afraid of hard work, and am a very determined person. If someone tells me I can't do something, I work even harder to prove that I can. Can't isn't in my vocabulary. I play with heart and give everything I have both on and off the field, practice or games, and in my classes. I am a team player, I want what is best for my team not just me. I love to help the younger players- either through talking, explaining or cheering them on from the sideline and celebrating their accomplishments, or through demonstrating on the field through my plays, attitude and determination and grit. I am a leader who brings intensity, and never say die or quit attitude.
My parents taught me from a very young age to be respectful to everyone and to be open to learn. I own up to my mistakes and take responsibility of them then I work hard to correct those mistakes. I have learned that you can learn something from everyone you meet and use that to make yourself a better person, not just as an athlete.
