Personal Statement
I have always had the goal to get a college education. I realize that being a student athlete, you must be a student first. I have pushed myself to do the best that I can do, but I feel that I still have the ability to go even further. The main colligate goal I have is continuing my football career along with obtaining a degree. I feel that this game has changed my life in so many different ways, and I would love the opportunity to take it to the next level. Moving to Chandler my junior year because of my previous schools cancellation of our football program, made me that much more dedicated to pursue it. I had the chance to get in the weight room and work my way up through the summer, earning a starting spot playing both ways for Chandler, as well as being one of the top lifters on our team. I would be a good candidate because of the drive I have not only in the field or weight room, but in academics as well. I know the importance of balancing school and sports and feel that given the opportunity I would be a great leader, and student in that I am willing to push not only myself, but others to succeed.
In our defense at Chandler, it is set up for the linebackers. It takes a lot of discipline to take on blockers instead of making the tackle. It has allowed me to realize the importance of putting my team first and my personal goals second. Some of my athletic goals, that I have recently been thinking a lot about are getting a lot stronger, bigger( weight/muscle), and faster, and just doing better next year so I can perform at my max potential.
