Personal Statement

My goal is to get a scholarship to a college that provides medicine and nursing courses. My backup plan is broadcasting or journalism because I've always had a passion for being on TV and writing! As I have continued my softball journey, I have learned that skill comes with practice, but having good sportsmanship and being coachable is a natural trait, and is also the most important factor of this game. I am a team player and I believe in always having a good attitude. I work hard and have an intense passion for the game. My dream is to get a scholarship to a Division 1 college, (although I am willing to play in any division best suited for me) and play my heart out. I am a hard-worker not only on the field, but also in the classroom. Academics has always been a priority to me and my family as well as helping my community by volunteering. I aim for perfection in everything I do and I do it with a good attitude and a smile!
