2019 HighlightsPersonal Statement
Pole Vaulting spoke to me when I tried out for it freshman year, I knew that this is what I wanted to do the rest of my life. Taking 5th place at Sections for my school so far has been the highlight of my High School career. I learned through Vaulting that I am a natural leader and that I have the utmost perseverance to accomplish my goal. I plan to be clearing 17 ft by the end of my High School career and I don't plan on stopping there. Straight A's is what I want to maintain throughout my High School and College career. I've had to overcome obstacles and the major one was to get inverted, this took mental perseverance to break what I thought I was doing and to change everything I knew to make myself a better athlete. Aside from being an athlete, I am an older brother, I know what leadership is an I clearly demonstrate the qualities of a leader. Although I am not the oldest Vaulter at my school, my skills exceed those who are, and my attitude reflects that.
