Personal Statement
My name is Jacob Ware. I am a senior at Macon East Academy. I am 17 years old and currently 6 ft 3 1/2 inches tall and weigh about 161 lbs. I love and play all sports but my passion is for basketball. My coaches have always complemented me on my hard work, desire to learn and my ability to be coached. I play mostly small forward and shooting guard. My current AAU team is East Alabama Elite out of Auburn, Alabama. I played on the Columbus Kings out of Columbus, Georgia prior to 2012. I ran on the varsity track team as a 7th and 8th grader. I also play varsity baseball and football. I am the oldest of three boys. I have really made an effort to set a good example for my brothers. My dream is to go to college, obtain a college degree and play basketball. I would like to play or be involved with any team I feel I could make a difference. I have really began to focus on weight lifting and becoming the best basketball player I can possibly be. I am highly motivated and do not mind motivating others. I come to practice early and leave late. I feel as if I could have a lot to offer a team if given the opportunity. I have also began to really look for a school where I could see myself spending the next four years of my life.
