Personal Statement
My name is Jakub Lipinski I am a 6’4 forward from Brooklyn, New York. I play basketball for my High School team and a outside team in the CYO league. I led my team to the championship in one of the outside leagues. What has led me to play basketball is me and parents moved from Poland to America, basketball was something that I didn’t need to know english for so I would go to the park and play it and then I eventually made friends because of it. As I kept playing I fell in love with the game. I have been a varsity player since freshman year. I would love to attend a college that has one of the majors I Am interested in. I feel like i can be a great addition to any team because, I make sure to communicate on defense and offense, I make sure to give it my all when i’m on the court and in the classroom, I make sure to have a good relationship with my teachers, coaches and teammates.
