Personal Statement
Character, dedication, and work ethic are what differentiates me from my teammates and opponents.
Early in my freshman year of high school, I recognized I would have to outwork my teammates to meet my personal goal of starting on the varsity football team as a sophomore. To support this goal, I joined the power lifting team and have gained a passion for lifting and working out. After finishing last in every power lifting meet my freshman year, now as a Junior, I have placed in every meet this season (1st (twice), 2nd (twice), and 3rd) and qualified for the Regional meet. This dedication continued year-round with 6 A.M. personal workouts on my own before school. I also continued workouts after school and daily throughout the summers. After achieving my goal to become a sophomore defensive starter and then achieving All-District honors as Junior, I have recently set a goal of playing collegiate football while I complete my college degree.
