Personal Statement
Since I was as little as I can remember; I have always wanted to play college football. I want to compete at a higher level. As a very competitive person I have always wanted more. I have always wanted greatness. And as we both know, one saying he/she has achieved greatness is like someone saying they are perfect. I am far from perfect but unlike a lot of kids my age I have learned accept that and build off of it. There are also other values I can bring along with a will to achieve more. As a United States Soldier, I also pride myself in honesty, effort, leadership, integrity, and respect. These all translate into being part of a team. That is a big part in my love for football. Being part of something bigger than myself. Only after this summer at Basic Combat Training did I truly get a taste of what it is really like to sacrifice myself for a team.
