I am writing this personal statement to introduce myself as a prospective student-athlete on your national recruiting platform. My name is Taura White and I am a 16 year-old high school student with a deep passion for lacrosse and cheerleading.
My journey in sports began in the 4th grade when I first picked up a lacrosse stick. From that moment on, I was captivated by the game. As a ladies lacrosse goalie, I have dedicated countless hours to developing my skills and honing my craft. I thrive in the high-pressure situations that come with being the last line of defense for my team. Through years of hard work, determination, and unwavering commitment, I have grown both as an athlete and as a person. I bring a strong, competitive spirit to every game and practice, always striving to give my best and push myself beyond my limits.
Beyond lacrosse, I am also a varsity cheerleader, which has further enhanced my athletic abilities and taught me the importance of teamwork and collaboration. Cheerleading has instilled in me a sense of discipline, showmanship, and resilience. The combination of lacrosse and cheerleading has helped me develop as a well-rounded athlete, with skills that extend beyond the field and into all aspects of my life.
In addition to my athletic pursuits, I am an active member of my community and church. I believe in giving back and making a positive impact on the world around me. Whether it's volunteering at local events, participating in community service projects, or helping out at my church, I am always eager to lend a hand and contribute to the betterment of my community.
As I embark on the college recruiting process, I am seeking an institution that aligns with my values, offers a strong academic program, and fosters a supportive athletic environment. I am eager to continue my lacrosse journey at the collegiate level and pursue my academic goals simultaneously. I value teamwork, leadership, and personal growth and hope to find a college that can help me thrive in all these areas.
Thank you for considering me, I am excited about the opportunities that lie ahead and look forward to the possibility of joining your esteemed institution.
Sincerely,
Taura White
