2021 Highlights Personal Statement
Thrilled to announce I have committed to Ramapo College of New Jersey for the Fall of 2024 and will be playing basketball for the Roadrunners and Coach McBreen.
------------------------
Dear College Coaches,
I’m a team player with a strong work ethic and a passion for the game. As an athlete with the goal of playing at the college level, I understand the grit necessary, and I’m prepared. I’m a hard-working player who has the motivation, integrity, and talent to be a part of something more. I began my freshman year playing JV and Varsity but was quickly shifted and became a key player on the Varsity team, ending our 14-game season with 5 Varsity starts.
Two things you can count on is I’m disciplined and I'm resilient; I've been through some really difficult times in my life, but I continue to show up and I’m consistent in my efforts to improve myself and my skills. I have a high basketball IQ and a true passion for the game. I’m coachable and always try my best to be my best. I’ll do whatever is needed for my team to take the win. I’m a great leader on and off the court and I love the brotherhood that grows from a team.
I look forward to exploring any opportunities to see if your college/university is compatible with my academic and athletic goals. Thank you for your time.
