Personal Statement
I am a sophomore at Palos Verdes High School in Palos Verdes, CA. I have been playing lacrosse since I was 6 years old and currently play for Mad Dog National, Mad Dog West Elite and Palos Verdes. I am a midfielder that loves to play tough defense, and I have experience playing long pole, as well. I currently have a 3.9/4.0 GPA (4.8/5.0 weighted) and am in the National Honor Society. I am interested in studying science research, biology and neuroscience.
I believe my coaches would describe me as athletic, fast and tough. I love being part of a team, whether it is for lacrosse, leading a group science project or helping with charitable events like coaching special needs kids in football. I work hard to balance academics and athletics, and hope I can continue to do that and bring my leadership and enthusiasm to a respected college with a strong, hard-working lacrosse team.
