Personal Statement
Dear Coaches,
My name is Caleb Butts from Chesapeake,VA and I am writing to you because of my interest in playing basketball at your college. I play on my high school team and I consider myself a very important contributor on my team.
Just to tell you a little bit about myself. I am currently playing the 3 and the 4 on my school team. This year I transitioned into the Metro conference, playing for Alliance Christian Academy in Portsmouth, VA. I held my own this past year in the conference averaging 16.3 PPG. I was the #1 rebounder leading the Metro conference averaging 13.8 RPG. I also won the MVP award this past year for my Varsity team. In just one year of playing for this team, I have shown myself as the leader on the team. The players looked for me to deliver in big games, and that is what I showed them this season, and hope to continue this trend.
As a student, I am a Freshman this year. I currently have a 4.0 GPA. My goal is to graduate Valedictorian in my class. I would say that my greatest strengths according to school would be Math and History. I think that your college would be a great fit for me to explore my interests in these subjects.
I hope that you are able to see me play. Below I have included a link to my highlight video from 2014-2015 season- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=irHVngXlFRo
I would love to meet you and talk about the possibility of being a part of your team in 2019. If there is anything I can do to help you decide whether I might be a good fit for your program please don’t hesitate to ask, and if you have any further questions I look forward to answering them for you.
Thank you very much for your time and I look forward to hearing back and contacting you very soon.
Sincerely, Caleb Butts
