Personal Statement
Basketball is my passion. I have been playing since kindergarten. I have always been around the sport, since my dad was a coach and my older sister was playing. I have always played against older kids. I have been a member of the varsity high school team since 5th grade and have been a starter since 7th grade. As I enter my freshman year of high school, I have scored 686 career points.
Although basketball is my passion, I understand that academics is of the highest priority. I have managed a 4.0 throughout my school years. My plans are to enter the medical field and eventually attend dental school.
How could I give a personal statement and not mention my savior, Jesus Christ? He, along with my family, is the person that has helped to mold me into the person that I am.
As I end, I challenge you to ask anyone what kind of teammate that I am. I work hard and expect everyone else to follow. I have always been a leader on my teams, even though I am usually younger than everyone else. For example, I lead the team in prayer at mid court before every game.
