Personal Statement
My name is Zoe Cauthen. I am 16 and a junior at Florence Christian School, in Florence, SC. My current UTR is 9.2, and I am working hard daily and steadily improving my numbers. In academics, I am ranked in the top 10% in my class. Florence, South Carolina is a small town with limited resources for a competitive junior player, but I have been able to make it work, as I am very self motivated. I love the game and competing in tournaments whenever it is possible. I have a wonderful retired city coach who has helped me over the past 8 years in achieving my goals. I have also been blessed with the opportunity to work with other amazing coaches in the Southeast, and I am confident my UTR and ranking will be way beyond its current level by 2019. I am extremely grateful for the opportunity to play such an amazing sport, and I am willing to do what it takes to get to the next level. I am looking to be part of a college tennis team that challenges me to give my very best. Playing a few years of highschool basketball has taught me a lot about being on a team and working together to become successful.
