Personal Statement
Hi Coach,
My name is Ella Kaleta. I am a junior at Bothell High School, class of 2023. I have been involved with basketball since first grade and it's always been my favorite sport. I played other sports, such as softball, track and field, and cross country but in seventh grade I fell in love with the speed, competition, and team aspects of the game. After I started to have success, it made me want to work harder and harder and play against the best players in my area.
I have worked very hard on my game and my leadership abilities. I push myself to give 100% whether I am training or playing in a game, and I am committed to outworking my competition. I love the team aspect of the game-in which I hold myself accountable for playing my best, and for leading my teammates to success as well.
In the classroom, I maintain a 3.9 GPA and hope to attend a college that will allow me to pursue a great career after basketball. I strive to put all my hard work to use to make my coaches, teammates, and family proud.
