Personal Statement
My best discus throw is 150 ft and best shot put throw is 51' 9". I believe that long-term goals to improve my strength are very important to my field events. My goals are to be able to bench press at least 300 lb, and to continually strengthen my entire body to be ready to throw at any time. I have a membership at a local gym to stay on a schedule to accomplish this.
Academics are as important to me as track & field. I currently hold a category of Cum Laude with Honor at Albuquerque Academy High School. I will continue to improve upon that my Fall and Spring semester of my senior year. Albuquerque Academy is currently ranked #5 for best private high schools by bestcolleges.com. Indeed, my regular and AP courses exceed the standard courses taken at the public level. This will help me at the college level.
Consider my status in field events as improving on throwing as well as strengthening, and consider my status in academics as very good when deciding on whether or not to accept me to your college. I will not let you down.
