Personal Statement

Hi coachs my name is Deshawn Rucker from rock island Illinois and my goals for the next couple of years is to be a all American and win 3A state and be the best I can be. Why I’m a good fit for your collage is because I run 6 days a week and lift every morning and night and I’m a great student in the classroom and I will keep my gpa at a 3.0 or higher. I’m a all around track athlete so I can do any event you need me too. Thank you guys for your time and please take a look at my socials in my bio. Thank you again!!!
