Personal Statement
My Name is Zion Oliver, and I am a 6'0 Combo Guard from Chandler, Arizona. I attend AZ Compass Prep High School, where I play on the black national team. I have been playing the game of basketball since I was about six years old. It has been my dream and goal to play college basketball. My goal has been to play for a division one team. I have had many obstacles on this journey, but I am determined to reach my goal. I continuously work to condition my body and mind for the work I have before me. My most outstanding achievement is not giving up because I am seen as an underdog and not ranked, but I believe in myself and my ability to be a great player. Coaches have told me that I am freakishly athletic and that I give 100 percent in my workouts, practice, and on the court.
I look forward to playing for a college coach that would see my abilities and allow me to prove myself on the next level. I would make a great candidate for any team I play on because I am a hard worker and teachable, and I love the game of basketball.
