Personal Statement
I have been blessed to have had many opportunities to play in athletic programs with great coaches who encourage strong character both on and off the court. I stopped playing football and focused on basketball year round beginning my sophomore year. My work ethic has helped me to improve my skills each year. I have always had a passion for sports. It is not only fun to play, it has served as a great bridge to connect with people in domestic and foreign missions. Sports is a universal language.
My favorite sports to play have been football and basketball. Football helped me develop a toughness which is useful on the basketball court. I have hopes of playing at the collegiate level. My strengths on the court include being aggressive and rebounding. I am a team player with a strong will to win and have been told I am coachable because I take direction well and have a high basketball IQ.
