Beginning my football career in the fourth grade, I quickly learned the importance of teamwork and discipline at a young age. Being an underdog, I was always overlooked by my coaches and teammates as the "typical lineman" instead of the "purposeful player". However, my growing determination and mindset for success on and off the field helped me prevail academically and athletically through all my years of school and sports. With participating in football for eight years, I have grown into the determined athlete that I've striven for since I first stepped foot on the field.
I believe I'm a good candidate for any team who wants a player that will give 100%, even when not asked to. I've always put forth my best effort in the classroom to ensure I will be a successful citizen in the upcoming world. I plan to achieve an education that will carry me through any "rough spot' in the changing economy. Along with my devotion to sports and school, my work ethic and people skills have been strongly built with my three years of experience in construction, trenching, and excavating. If the well-being of the team was put in my hands, I'd give up my heart and soul to protect it. This is why I believe that I qualify to play and earn an education at the collegiate level.
