Personal Statement
Throughout high school I have been a three-sport athlete. I've found different ways to balance athletics and academics. I'm a competitive person, and I especially love to play softball, but during college I understand that earning my degree first is more important for my future. I'm looking for a school that is within a couple hours of home, because I still want to focus on spending time with my family and being around for them. As an athlete, I take pride in building other people up, even if I'm struggling. It's something I grew up doing easily, and because of it I've built a lot of friendships with people.
