Personal Statement
Thank you for your interest in me. I am currently a senior at RHAM High School in Hebron, CT. Athletics, and particularly the sport of football, have always been a great passion for me. Ever since I first put on pads as a 1st grader in youth football, I was hooked on the sport. What I love most about the sport is the emphasis on team work, brotherhood and the motto "We Go Further Together". There's nothing I admire more than my teammates all coming together to make a play happen!
As a JV player two years ago, I was awarded the "Coaches' Award" for defense. I believe I was chosen because not only did I work hard on my own game, but I also worked hard and enthusiastically to encourage my teammates to learn, grow and shine. I pride myself on having a positive attitude despite any obstacles before me. After a defeat once, a coach once asked me: "I know we lost, but WHAT DID YOU LEARN?" I learned that every opportunity, whether it's a W or a L, there's always a chance to gain knowledge and to correct mistakes.
Lastly and most recently, after losing the 2020 football season, we are back on the field in 2021. I am thrilled to have been selected as one of the team captains this year. It's a great honor indeed and I am looking forward to helping lead a squad of almost 70 players.
I am so looking forward to continuing my academic and athletic career at a college in the future, The future is bright and I am so excited!
