2019 HighlightsPersonal Statement
I like track and field for a couple reasons: it keeps me active, makes me competitive, and always makes me want to be better than the last time I competed.
I work hard everyday in practice and in the weight room. In practice I am always trying to have better technique and more power. I try and practice as much as possible to be the best athlete I can.
School is always been important but not easy to me. I have a hard time focusing but always try my hardest to get the best result. I know that if I fall behind it is going to cost me in the long run so I try and stay on top of things. In college I am looking to attend the highest division school that offers an Aeronautic or Mining or International Relations degree. I know these are very different degrees, but that is were my interests are.
Some things that make me special is that I will work hard without someone telling me to. I can self correct when something I am doing is wrong, and I can multi-task.
