Personal Statement
Football has had a huge impact on me as a person. The sport has made me a better person through all the wins and losses. Through the years, I have learned many life lessons. I believe that playing the sport has brought out a characteristic in me I never knew I had before. Once I found the “want” to win, I found out how much I could really push myself for a goal, and how hard I was willing to work. I run Spring Track and participate in the Athletic Development/Strength and Condition programs in the Winter and Summer at my high school to stay active year-round.
As focused as I am on athletics, I spend even more time focusing on my academics. I took multiple honors classes, and will take Advanced Placement classes this year. I take pride in my grades, just as I would take pride in wearing whatever name is on the front of my jersey.
What separates me from other recruits out there is I bring the energy to not only game day, but every practice, film session and workout. I am always trying to do things the right way, no matter how many attempts. I see myself as someone who listens to learn. With me, you will get someone who is reliable, honest, and will do whatever it takes to help reach the goal. Thank you for your time, and I hope that you will consider me to join your team.
