Basketball has been my life since the first time I picked up a ball. At a young age I knew that playing ball would be what I want to do with my future. In life my family is very important to me. We are very tight and we take care of each other. Right behind that is my team and my coach. My coach is one of the greatest men I have ever met. There is nothing I wouldn't do for him, he brings out the best in me. That is one of the reasons I try so hard to be as good a player as I can, he deserves my best. I am a very hard worker and I never give less than 100% at all times.
My biggest goal is to get to play ball in college on any level. Some of the greatest moments in my life have happened on the basketball court. When I got the chance to play in the All State game, it was amazing to me to know what it is like to be on a team where the athletes are just as dedicated as I am to the game. I know that playing ball in college will be that way too.
I hope to one day be a great coach and teacher. I work very hard in school even though I'm not the greatest at it. I do have a great support system that helps me make it through. Even though basketball is my passion, I know that education is important and I will do my best to be successful in my college classes so I may have a future of my choosing.
