Personal Statement
I’m a young athlete that’s from a family that didn’t have much success in our lives and I’m the one that’s wanting to change. It’s been a dream of mine to play basketball in college, something no one in my family has done. My grandmother told me to do big things, so that’s what I want to do. A kid from a small town but with big dreams. Not only play basketball but also become a teacher. Teaching high school students in English, and or Science classes. What makes me different? I’m willing to sacrifice anything to make my team better. There’s no “I” in team. Teamwork makes the dream work, I also put in tremendous work in the offseason. Not by myself but with other team mates. I do my best to get my team involved with workouts, shoot arounds, or conditioning drills. I tell them if we want bigger things in life, we got to work for them.
