Personal Statement
My biggest influences in my life have been both my parents. My dad played college football at the University of Cincinnati and has pushed me to be the best person I can be on and off the field. My mom played high school basketball and softball and has taught me that academics last longer than sports and that I should give the same amount of effort in sports as well as in the classroom. As much as I want to play football in the next level I also realize that a diploma last way longer than a college or professional career. My high school coach has instilled into our team that if you do not thrive in the classroom than you will not play on Friday nights. I think I am a better student in the classroom than athlete on the field. I am a very down-to-earth person that loves the competition and pressure. In conclusion, please watch my video, look at my grades, and hopefully talk to my coaches to show that I could be an asset to your University and football team.
