Personal Statement
Dear Coach,
My name is Sam Hess . I am a 2022 student-athlete with a 3.8 GPA ranked 6th in my class. Currently I am playing club basketball for West Coast Domination located in Grants Pass, Oregon. I attend Illinois Valley High School, I am a varsity level starter for football, track and basketball. This past year has been challenging especially since I have aspirations of playing at the next level but I have not let it be an excuse. I have made sure to look for opportunities to improve my skill set in both sports by playing club basketball (AAU) and since our football program has been canceled, I have been offered ( I accepted the offer) the opportunity to play football for another High School team (Hidden Valley High School) that is a runner up to the 3A level State Championship.
I am beginning to explore my college options and am very interested in playing basketball or football for a college team. My intent is to commit to a program that will assist me in attaining my goal to become a physical therapist and play competitive sports at the next level. Therefore, I want to introduce myself and give you some information about my athletic and academic background.
All of my athletic and academic information are located in my profile. In addition you will find my contact information, coach’s contact information and my highlight reel. I hope you will have the opportunity to watch our team play this season. I believe I have the ability to be a part of your team, and contribute to its future success.
Thank you for your consideration.
Sincerely,
Sam Hess
