Personal Statement
I started playing hockey when I was five. I have loved every minute and aspire to play in college and beyond.I try to lead by example , encourage and help my teammates. I am always even tempered and hard working. I respect the coaches and refs , and try to take everything they say as a learning experience to become a better player . I also ref youth games and enjoy teaching them the right way to play this great game.
Off the ice ; I study hard to maintain high grades in challenging classes. I enjoy mountain biking and playing xbox 1 . I volunteer at several M.S. events, and 9-11 charities , such as the Steven Stiller foundation , and the Wounded Warrior Project .
I am seeking a college that offers the right match for me , in the classroom and on the ice. I would like to play at the highest competition level possible , while studying demanding courses. I am open to all options and would take all offers or suggestions seriously .
