Personal Statement
As I go forward in life, my dream is to play soccer for as long as possible. Soccer has always been an important part of my life, and I love playing it!
My resilience against problems until I solve them is a strength I am proud of; I apply it to academics as well as soccer. I am always looking for new skills to learn and master.
My inspiration to play is my late friend Gracie, who was my teammate a long time ago. She passed away in a car accident that occurred after one of our games. Instead of quitting the sport, I continue to play in her honor. She inspires me to play, but my passion for soccer itself keeps me going.
For me, teammates should be like family. I believe that everyone on the team needs to encourage each other to do their best and perform at the highest level of athleticism.
