Personal Statement
Playing college football has been a dream of mine for as long as I can remember. I have played the game since I was six years old. In my middle school years, I began volunteering to help coach the Youth Football League. This league began my football experience and I wanted to help keep it strong for the younger players in this area. I have played and coached both sides of the ball and have tried to have an overall understanding of the entire game, not just my position. While I have played mostly on the offensive line during my two high school years, I have also played defense and special teams. I have a strong understanding of all positions relating to the offensive line, as I started at offensive tackle my Sophomore year and also played guard and center. My understanding is not exclusive to offense, however, as I played both defensive end and tackle my Freshman year. I know that playing college football is not all about football, though, and I have also excelled in the classroom. After five trimesters, I have a 3.2 GPA with an overall percentage of 90.4. I am looking for a college experience that will help me continue my academic growth while I help improve their football program.
