Personal Statement
My name is Jace Reynolds and I am a Senior at Harrisonville, MO, playing Class 4-A football. I currently stand at 5’8” and weigh 185 pounds. I started varsity as a running back freshman year and played twelve games, totaling 692 yards on 127 carries. After my sophomore year, I finished with 2096 rushing yards on 319 carries. Junior year I ended with 2446 Yds rushing on 273 carries averaging 9 ypc. I have been playing football since I was four years old and have fallen in love with the sport ever since. Through this great game, I have learned the value of teamwork, commitment, sacrifice, leadership, and how to remain humble when the game is going in my favor.
Possessing the desire to be the best teammate and running back for my team, I have indeed polished all the characteristics mentioned above. My newest love for the game is the keenness of being a leader for my team. I find being a leader and “setting the example” for those around me to be the most gratifying reward.
I am looking for a college that will challenge me, as well as provide me with a college degree in the engineering field. I currently have a 4.079 GPA and am taking several AP courses in high school. My first goal is to succeed in the classroom, and then on the field.
