Personal Statement
My name is Alonzo Johnson Vasquez, I was born in Seattle and moved to a little town. I have been playing football for the last 2 seasons. When I first stepped on the field and kicked my first field goal, I knew that If I work, I could go to collegiate level. I knew that playing in college was a once in a lifetime opportunity that could change my life.
I am always working to improve my skills as well as training to get faster, bigger and stronger. I am a team leader and try to lead by example while also encouraging my teammates. I am very coachable and strive to be one of the hardest working players and one of the hardest working recruits you’ll find. When I talked to some of my teammates, they said it would be almost imposable because no scouts look at athletes in little towns. When they told me that it made me more motivated to work on my goal.
In the classroom, I study hard and try to maintain a high GPA. I also try to give back to my community for everything they have done for our school and us as students.
I want to attend a college where I can push myself in the classroom and on the football field. I am open to all options and want to ultimately find the right college match at the highest level of competition possible. I hope to become a great role model for all my peers and make my parents and family proud.
