Adam Gerdes Winte...Personal Statement
I want to attend a college that will allow me the opportunity to play basketball. I bring a sense of leadership on and off the court and hold my teammates accountable to everything they do. I am coachable and welcome the chance to play on a team which would allow me to demonstrate my knowledge of the game.
My strengths include a high basketball IQ, making the extra pass, and the flexibility to adjust my role for the ultimate success of the team. I understand it’s not always about how many points I score in a game. I am passionate about getting better and committed to spending the time it takes to prepare to win each game.
Outside of athletics, I really enjoy spending time with my friends. I love movies, TV shows, and listening to music.
Academically, I am very strong and confident in my abilities. I’ve taken every dual credit class and most honors courses offered to me and maintain a 4.0 GPA. I’m interested in pursuing a career in sports management or broadcasting as a basketball sports announcer.
