Personal Statement
I have been playing basketball competitively since 3rd grade. I am 6'1" and 170 lbs. My Dad played Division I basketball in college (UC-Sacramento) and he has always coordinated my training and events. I have started on Varsity High School teams since 8th grade. Last year as an 11th grader, I reached my goal of 1000 points scored in high school. I am training to be a "Global Player"; developing both offensive and defensive skills to play multiple positions on the court and creating mismatches offensively and flexibility defensively. My training workouts consist of ball handling, spot-up shooting, mid-range play, post play, penetration, boxing out, moving without the ball, and footwork. I train 6 days a week for basketball and 3 days a week in strength and conditioning. My current primary 5-year goal is to be a dependable go-to player in a competitive Division I Basketball program at a strong Academic institution where I can flourish both athletically and academically. I am looking for an ambitious program that is committed to doing the work and building the long-term relationships essential to the success of the team.
