Personal Statement
Hello! My name is Amanda Marie Dreher. I am 16 years old and very eager to become a part of a collegiate softball team. I may only be a sophmore but that does not mean that I can not start now! Right? I am a very hardworking and dedicated leader on and off the field. If/ when I receive softball scholarships, I will be choosing the colleges that are more fit to my major and give me scholarships like what I know that I deserve.
I am 5 feet 7 inches tall and 135 pounds. Though I have received many compliments about how I play on the field I have not yet received any individual athletic rewards. When I am on the field I am into the game 110%. I am always there when another person needs to be picked up. I will admit that sometimes I get to much into the game and do get a little frustrated, but I also think that comes natural! I would love to go to a college in a mid weather climate with beautiful scenery all around! I would also like to stay close to home so that I can stay in the loop with my 2 year old brother, Matthew. I would really like to go to a Division 3 school or higher. The school size really does not matter to me! Just so that I can also get the education that will carry me in life, because even though I LOVE sports with all my heart, education has to come first! When choosing a school I am going to be looking for a school that has a strong criminal justice background. Having that drive to become a police officer makes me a little more serious about situations and I can judge situations faster, like where the ball needs to go in a sticky situation on the field! My atheltic goals are to be someone that I would be proud to know! I want to have little softball girls look up to me not just because of my softball skills but because of my upbeat attitude! I very much hope that you are happy with what you just read and I would really like to press how much I appreciate you taking the time out of your day to look at me for you softball team!
Hope to hear from you soon,
Amanda Dreher
