Personal Statement
Hi, my name is Austin Petry and I am a senior at Greeneview High School. Basketball is, and always has been, a huge part of my life. The passion I have for the game of basketball is unreal. It is something I do every single day. I am willing to travel just about anywhere to play the game at the next level. I am interested in a school that will challenge me in the classroom and also on the court. It has always been my dream to play at the college basketball level. Every coach I have had has told me I have the highest basketball IQ they've ever seen. I am willing to do anything and step up to any challenge you throw at me and I will be prepared to accomplish it. I want to pursue a college education, as I am undecided in what major I want to do, I am leaning towards sports marketing or business. I want to experience the entire college life, and succeed in everything a university has to offer. One word to describe me as a teammate is unselfish, one thing I love to see is the team succeeding and everyone getting involved on the court. To me, playing basketball is a privilege not a right. If provided the chance to play at the college level it would be unreal to me and the biggest accomplishment of my life, I will guarantee to represent the school, my family and myself with pride and honor. Thank you for your time for reading this, I really appreciate it.
