- 2021 Highlights
Personal Statement
I have moved a lot in my life and I think that has shaped me to really think about the "now" in life; because some things that you treasure, won't always be there. Football has always been my safe haven. Whether it was messing around with friends, or playing the most competitive game of football in my life. I have always been around football because of my dad, but the first time I really started playing physical ball was my 7th grade year. I have learned through football that hard work pays off. Having the dedication can really change the outcome of the game. It has also taught me that you could have the most talented team in the state, but if you don't have discipline, you would be lucky if you win one game.
My academic goals for High school and College would be valedictorian of my class. I would like to the highest grades and highest test scores possible.
Many obstacles have been thrown at me, but who hasn't had hardship? Through moving to different areas and not enough kids for a football team in my town has really made me realize that some things just aren't supposed to happen.
I would say that my unique characteristic is the ability to see the good in things; whether it be on or off the field. I want to succeed on every level I get the chance to play at. Not only do I want to succeed, but I want to be the best.
