Personal Statement
I started my basketball career around 7 years ago and ever since then I have been in love with the sport. Basketball has always been there for me and has helped me become who I am now. On my NCSA journey I have started remembering how much the sport has meant to me all these years. During my childhood things like socializing and making friends always came hard for me. When I discovered basketball in 3rd grade it opened a whole new world. It taught me to become confident, hard-working, and disciplined. Soon enough everything in my life that scared me seemed to be much easier. That's why now I look at basketball more than just a sport, but rather as a home and family. It has showed me my values and strengths you can't see in regular day life. I will always look into the future and see basketball in my life because I wouldn't be where I am now without it.
