Personal Statement

I only started water polo in the post-COVID 2021 spring season my sophomore year, but I fell in love with it and started sprinting to be the best.  I joined two clubs that summer to play 4 hours / day and work with the best goalie coaches in NorCal, I was team MVP in Fall 2021, and then in Jan. 2022 I moved from NorCal to SoCal to spend the off-season with Rico and Tony Azevedo, Merrill Moses, and Amanda Longan at 6-8 Academy for 2 hours every morning and play for USC assistant coach Ivan Buich at night on Orange County Water Polo club's 18U team.  At 2022 JOs, I won the team's 2 shootouts with 2 blocks each, and the first one got us into the Platinum division.  For senior year, I transferred to national #8-ranked Orange Lutheran, where I am the starting goalie.  We won the CIF-Southern Section Division 1 Championship, and I was selected 1st team All CIF-Southern Section Division 1 by the Southern California Water Polo Coaches Association.  I averaged 10 saves per game in the 20 games I played after my 30-day transfer sit-out.  Our record was 15 wins vs. 5 losses for those 20 games, compared to our  5 wins vs. 6 losses record during my transfer sit-out.  I aim to keep improving fast through 4 years of college while studying history, government, and statistics.

Then I did all of his goalie combines that I could throughout 2021 before moving to SoCal for Tony Azevedo's 6-8 Academy in January 2022. Jack is a great goalie coach, and I hope to keep learning from him.
