Personal Statement
I believe I’m a good candidate for your team because I think I’m a great team player. My intensity is much more needed on the court than outside of a gym. It was my dream to play basketball when I was younger and when I got to High School it was a dream come true. It pushed me to be better in class and on the court. Whenever the marking period was almost done I’d always make sure that I had everything in on time for my teachers because I knew that if I didn’t do my best to average at least an 80% it would cost me a quarter or two in a game, sometimes even the whole game if my coach found out I was failing a class. That’s how hard my coach is on us because she knows we can do better and that’s exactly what I’m doing. Also, I think it would be a great opportunity to experience what it’s like to play college basketball.
