Personal Statement
My number one goal is to be able to play college football and obtain a good education while doing so. I think I am a very hard working athlete who will motivate everyone else around me to work just as hard.
Many people like to party in high school, and they use the fact that they are just kids and they are just in high school as an excuse to make stupid decisions. I, personally, avoid all circumstances where I may be expected to drink or do other illegal things. A few times I have had to get rid of some close friends because of it, but I know my long term goal is much more important and I don't want to jeopardize it for one night.
As far as football goes, I pride myself on my release and my ability to stay calm and move around in the pocket. I have grown up around the game and have a great understanding of the game itself and how to pick apart a defense. I am able to retain a lot of information faster than most kids which gives me an advantage on the field and in the classroom.
I push myself in the classroom by taking all AP and Honors classes, and I maintain an A average in those classes. I'm willing to work past the point most people are willing to go, and that is what separates me from others.
