Personal Statement
I have been blessed with lots of opportunities to play ball throughout my life on very good teams at the highest level of play. I have played Varsity basketball since my Freshman year in the toughest region and in the highest division in the State of Utah. I have traveled to China (twice), Australia, Mali Africa, and the East Coast with my high school and club teams. I played on the same club team (Utah Mountain Stars) for 5 years and played in the top NCAA Invitational tournaments in the "Invite" Division in the Western United States. My greatest strength is my shooting ability, particularly my 3-point shot. Another one of my strengths is my ability to read the floor and make plays by utilizing my teammates' strengths and quick decision-making skills to win games. I take academics seriously and have maintained a high GPA throughout my high school years. My character is probably the most important aspect of my personal development because my character will follow me in every aspect throughout my life. Much of that character has been developed with the game of basketball, and I believe those experiences are the greatest outcome of what the game has done for me.
