Personal Statement

    Basketball is a huge part of my life because I love everything about the sport and I look forward to practicing every day.  I push myself to meet any challenge on or off the floor.  Characteristics I’ve been able to build from playing and practicing basketball include leadership, accountability, determination, perseverance, and humbleness. Basketball has taught me how to manage my time, make sacrifices, and problem solve. Through hard work I hope to achieve my goals and ultimately play college basketball.

    My personal attributes include basketball IQ, shooting, (three point shooting, pull up jumpers), ball handling, defense, coach ability, toughness, communication, desire to win, and work ethic. I am not afraid of long hours in the gym and I evaluate myself and I value my coaches’ evaluations to point out my weaknesses so I can improve them.

    I am looking for a college where I can achieve my dream of contributing to a college basketball team, excel academically and earn a college degree, while building lifelong friendships and memories.
