Personal Statement
Hi I am Nathan Huntsinger. I am a Senior at Green Mountain High School. I have a cumulative unweighted GPA of 3.849 and a weighted GPA of 4.0. I love sports, all throughout High School I have been in athletics. I have only played football since my sophomore year. I have played soccer since I was four. I have always been able to out kick anyone on the soccer field. After my freshman year in soccer I wanted to see if I could kick a football. My Dad and I went out and actually bought a football. We went to a local park and after we were finished, I found out I could kick a 45-yard field goal and a kick off of 60 yards. I remember my Dad asking me, “Can you live with yourself if you had the opportunity to win the Homecoming game and go wide left?” I told him, “Dad I won’t miss!” Fast forward to my third football game. It was Homecoming and we were tied 14 – 14 with 23 seconds to go. It was 4th down and we were on the 4-yard line. Our head coach told me I got this. I went out and the other team called timeout. I could feel my heart pumping and both crowds were screaming. The referee blew his whistle, I told my holder I was ready. It was a perfect snap and a perfect hold and I put it right down the middle. That was the moment I knew I could be a kicker. By the way my Dad almost threw up in the stands because he was so nervous.
But school to me is very very important. I love school, it will be the key to my success. All I want in my next part of my life is to be accepted into a great college, further my academic study and kick a few field goals.
