Personal Statement
My name is Joseph Nichols, Jr. I am a hard working, very athletic, extremely passionate basketball player. I LOVE playing basketball, I LOVE playing Defense, passing the ball, rebounding, stealing and yes shooting the long ball. I am the 1st one in the gym and the last one out. I believe in TEAM Ball. I can be Robin, without any hesitation whatsoever and I am extremely comfortable with that role, however, If I am needed to be Batman, then Batman, I will be!
If there is one word to describe me, it would be coach-able. I pay attention, work hard & desire to get better every day!
I am an above average student, but unfortunately, my GPA of 2.4 does not reflect my skills. High School was very easy for me & I was allowed to coast, instead of fully applying myself. I am currently attending Prestige Prep Academy in Linden NJ and will be graduating in 2021. I will be able to increase my SAT score of 800 substantially. I plan on graduating from college with a Bachelors degree in Communication, towards the top of the class.
I have a Great home life, lead by my Dad Joseph Sr., a 6 foot/6 inch Wonderful Man, who guides me, advises me & who is my Best Friend! My Mom, who is all around Awesome, an unbelievable cook, ( I Love to Eat) and a Loving Woman. My middle brother Jordan, who is only 10 months younger than I am and my 7 year old baby brother Jonathan Paul. We live a very Happy, Loving Life, filled with values & morals, we are Blessed!
