Personal Statement
I believe that my past failures in sports have helped shape the student/athlete I am now. As a dual sport athlete, I have faced many challenges and tribulations that I overcame and made grow as a young man as well. Freshmen year was my most eye opening year, the competition had risen, and I had to step to the plate or watch from the sidelines. Although I was not the point guard at the time, my coaches looked to me to help lead the team. I became serious about sports that year, and we ended our season being first in our district.
As my high school years went on, we got better and and grew as young men and as student/athletes. I believe that though I am ready for the next level, I have a lot more to learn. I believe that I can greatly contribute a positive impact on not only your program but my teammates as well. I feel that I can compete at the college level athletically and academically and I am mentally prepared for the next level.
