Personal Statement
My passion for volleyball started around 5th or 6th grade and I become an even bigger fan when I watched men's volleyball in the Olympics in 2012. I have always loved sports and the idea of competing has always been an interest of mine. I compete everyday of my life, practice or game, I try my best to become not only a better athlete but also a better person. I am a very vocal leader and I try to lead by example for my younger teammates. My goal is to attend a school to get a college degree and maybe even get to play the sport I love along the way. I believe my success in the classroom will also benefit my play on the court . I have been looked at all my life as the "scrawny, weak guy" on the team and have been told that I was too weak to play a sport in college. I hope to prove those people wrong and I figured doing my best in my schoolwork would help me in those efforts. I hope you don't over look me, because I have the most heart and competitiveness out of anyone I know. Thank you for your consideration!
