Personal Statement
Basketball has been an important part of my life since I could remember, but academics have taken higher priority my entire life. My dream is to find the college that will be a good fit athletically and academically. My ability to balance sport and school has given me an edge on my peers. When I am on the court, I am able to give my coaches everything I have, but when I step off the court I do not forget the person I am. I do not forget the student I am. That ability to split my personalities is rare in athletes my age and it has given me opportunities on both sides (athletics and academics). Throughout my high school career I have maintained at least a 4.0 (4.39 current) gpa while also leading my basketball team as the starting point guard. I believe I am a valuable prospect for any school, athletically and academically.
