- 2021 Highlights
Personal Statement
The first time I touched a basketball I fell in love with the sport. I enjoy the competition, the strive for improvement, and camaraderie with my teammates and coaches. My excitement for basketball fuels my passion to play in college.
I have always been a strong leader on my teams. As a junior this year I have already been named captain on my high school team and have been leading off season workouts. I am known for my leadership on the court in reading defenses, calling the right plays, and creating for my teammates (averaging 8.2 assists). In addition, I pride myself on my strong defense and am always assigned to cover the opposing team’s top scorer. I am also known for my speed on the court (I am also on the track team) which allows me to get past defenders, generate fast breaks, and create easy steals (averaging 2.5 steals). I have developed into my teams strongest 3-point shooter (averaging 11.8 points). I have a very strong work ethic. I am constantly in the gym, working out, and enjoy breaking down game film. I love watching basketball, and constantly "coaching" my favorite teams through the TV.
I have maintained a 3.92 GPA while playing two varsity high school sports (basketball and track), being a part of multiple clubs, working, and playing AAU year round. Therefore, I know I have the ability to be a dedicated student athlete.
Hard work, commitment, and a positive attitude are values that have helped me succeed and improve as a student athlete. I am excited for an opportunity to play basketball in college and to join a program which embodies these values.
