Personal Statement
My name is A`aderius Blanks. I've been playing basketball since the 7th grade. I have a deep passion for basketball. Since I’ve been playing basketball, I’ve learned a lot about life. First it has taught that you get out of it what you put in it. It taught me to work hard, stay focus, and to achieve greatness. Basketball also taught me to be patient and to be a team player. I haven’t been playing long but I put in the extra work, dedication, and training to become a better athlete. I also run track and cross country to discipline myself to achieve my life goals.
