The goals that I have athletically is that I want be the best player and teammate I can be while on the court. I want  to prove that I should have minutes. I want to play basketball in college because I have a love and passion for it, I am always playing or working out to improve myself and my game. What I love about the game is the endless running up and down the court, it keeps you locked in the whole game.

If I do something wrong I will listen and try my hardest to get it right the next time down. As for on the basketball court, I can stretch the floor with my shooting, I put the ball on the floor well so I can get past defenders with ease. I can also distribute the ball well, my drive and kick is good. My finishing ability is also good, when I get into the lane I can switch hands and finish with either.

What sets me apart from many others  is that I live and work on a farm. This teaches me what hard work really is. I wake up early every morning, regardless of the weather or how I am feeling and take care of the animals . I understand that the cows, pigs, goats and chickens depend on me and that is important to me. I also have an indoor basketball court that I practice on every single day so I have no reason to not work hard. I am loyal, dependable and enthusiastic!
