2015 Highlights 
2014 HighlightsPersonal Statement
My collegiate goals and aspirations are to attend a school with a good Engineering or Health Sciences program, as this is my current interest. Another one of my goals, which is just as important, is to play Varsity sports(Basketball or Track), in a competitive program, during my years in college. I want my college experience to be well rounded, academically, athletically and a overall good fit.
I am a good candidate for a college team because I love the game, I'm extremely competitive and I enjoy playing! I have been playing basketball since I was 9 and through out those years I have played about every position. I began running track during off season of my freshman year and grew to like the individual competition of this sport as well. As a multiple position guard I am always mentally as well as physically playing while on the court. I am a pass first guard, patient with the plays, providing strength on offense/defense and I have with quick hands and feet. I am very athletic with an aggressive style of playing that usually takes my opponents by surprise. I use my ability to jump, to rebound the ball very well and I use my speed to steal the ball. I understand the concept of "team", and as team captain, in both sports, my sophomore year, I learned how to set the tempo and when to step in and lead by example. The difference between me and other recruits academically, is that I am use to maintaining my grades while playing multiple sports. It has become second nature and a personal standard to work hard on and off the court. I also have a positive attitude, strong practice ethics and enough self-motivation to always stay positive and focused while encouraging my teammates to do the same. My favorite quote is: "The only person you have to be better than is the person you were yesterday.-Unknown". I believe all these aspects help make me a good candidate for any college team.

- Following careful thought and personal consideration, I withdrew from the team prior to the first season game. I had an awesome summer AAU season to reflect and base my continued recruitment processes from, so I chose to forego basketball this season and I am currently running track indoor and outdoor season and I also continue with my basketball workouts/skills practice with my AAU team. As a dual athlete, I am currently being recruited in both sports and plan to play one of the mentioned Varsity sports in college.

This has been a long AAU Summer and by the time I got to this tournament it was off of pure adrenalin! I was so excited to play with my travel team again. Our regular PG was out so I had to play PG the entire tournament and I had not practiced with them all season. It was quick learning and adjusting on my feet! It was some good competitive basketball and I had fun every minute of it. I normally play combo guard, so this gave me the opportunity to control the tempo of the game even more and it worked to our advantage. We made it to the semi-finals.

I played hard, the team was quick and full of shooters. The second game was much better. I was able to get quite a few steals and assists as well as keep up match up to the level of aggressive play.

- AAU- The Maryland Pride 16U(Bledsoe): This tourney was the first of the AAU season for us. We didn't get a chance to scrimmage before the event, so it was definitely an opportunity for growth. I did well over all, and we played some tough competition all 3 games. I played the wing more in this tourney than usual as that is what my team needed at the time. My shots were good, but my personal evaluation is that I should have taken more shots. I will the next time.

Great drill work out. My team went to the finals in the 3x3. We rotated position work outs so I was able to perform skill development in PG and SG positions.
