Personal Statement
I would say that most of my life I have been an underdog and that has influenced my never-give-up attitude. When all odds are against me I will always bet on ME! That will never change. I fell in love with sports from an early age starting with baseball, soccer, and flag football, then leading to basketball, football, and track. By far football is obviously the sport I am most passionate about. Not only do I think I have a natural calling for it, but I know I have the drive for it. Through playing football I have learned that it is more than just a game. With football comes great responsibility including maintaining great grades in the classroom, holding true to good morals, and even choosing to be a leader each and every day regardless of what others think.
My academic goals for high school are to exceed my own barriers and get the highest rank in my class that I can. At the end of the day, I want to hang my hat at graduation in May of 2023 knowing that all the hours of schooling and extra work I put in were worth it. With hanging that metaphorical hat on high school graduation, I would like to enter college with high standards as well. I don't just want to be an exceptional athlete. I want to be an outstanding athlete as well as a role model in the classroom. I am willing to work for what I want and believe that is how life should be.
