Personal Statement
My name is Nicholas Graves and am a rising 9th grader. My goals first and foremost is to get a college degree and to play college basketball and beyond. I am a good candidate for any team due to being a hard worker, coachable, competitive and a team player. What makes me different is that I practice and play hard, I respect my coaches, referees and I respect my teammates. I am very humble and understand that sports could be taken in an instant and I want to make the most out of my time playing. I value athletics and my parents stress good grades and getting a degree. I am also a self-motivated athlete and take the initiative to work out on my own to get better. Lastly, I am a coaches son, so I understand game situations, offensive sets and defensive schemes.
