Aritalia Williams '19 Recruiting Profile

My college goals and aspirations are to get a Ph.D in Veterinary Science and practice after college graduation. I would also like to get an Doctor of Juridical Science for Criminal Law.  While in college, I would like to participate in a sorority and as many clubs and student organizations as I can. 

I would be a good candidate for your team because I am a very team-spirited person. I enjoy cheering and encouraging my teammates during races, practice, and life. I value my membership in a team and take it very seriously. I work hard at every practice, I don't view practice as optional or an event that isn't mandatory. I believe that if you want to improve you need to put in the work to be the best. I am a responsible, honest, and a hardworking team member. I do my best to help the team in any way possible and am always looking for ways to improve for myself but most importantly, for the team.  If the team can't be a team then we will each fail individually, because if your part of the team its a whole group effort, the whole team will succeed if everyone vows to put in the work and dedication to improving the team.  Its better to be part of a team where everyone knows that there are teammates cheering them on and wanting for them to succeed. You will enjoy your sport more if you have a supportive team. 

I am different from other recruits in that I care about each member and I want them to succeed, as well as myself, and not just in athletics but in life. I want them to be the best versions of themselves that they can be.  I believe that hard work is necessary to reach the finish line and not to just cross the finish line, but to cross it feeling strong, confident and that you put your best out there and nothing less.  I work hard at everything I do no matter if I like it or not, in order to become the best version of myself that I know I can be. I am focused, determined, passionate, and enjoy taking risks to grow in every aspect of my being.  My ability to work at the things I love and don't love are what separates me from others, and the fact that I'm willing to try new things, in order to grow. I am always looking for ways to improve, and I believe your team/school could provide that.
