Personal Statement
My name is Angelina Porcello. I am just finishing my junior at Eastchester High School. I will be graduating in 2020. I am a three-sport athlete but my passion and commitment has always been to lacrosse. I have been playing lacrosse for 9 years starting with my town recreation league. I also play varsity volleyball and basketball. I am currently a starting midfielder on my high school lacrosse team as well as my travel team. I have been on varsity lacrosse for the last 4 years. This past season (junior year) I had a very successful season. I had 59 goals and 16 assists. I also scored my 100th goal which was very exiting. I received the All league and All Section Honorable Mention awards. My position is midfield but I can play attack or defense if needed. I am hard working, focused and competitive. As of now I want to become a teacher so I plan to study Education in College. My goal is to play lacrosse in college and I feel with my skills and work ethic I should be able to accomplish that goal. I am dedicated and a team player. As a three-sport athlete I am familiar with the level of commitment it will take to play in college. I would like to find a college that is the right match for me academically as well as athletically.
