I am a junior at Red Bank Catholic located in Red Bank, New Jersey. I believe my achievements so far qualify me as a unique student-athlete candidate worthy of your consideration.
Throughout my academic career I have always prioritized academics above all else but have been able to keep a balance while competing at a high level in two varsity sports. My current 4.2 GPA has been achieved while taking honors and AP classes in several subjects. I scored a 1410(680 reading, 730 math) on the SAT and a 32 on the ACT. Continuing my high academic pursuit is of the utmost importance to me. The schools I am considering are of the more selective academically.
My sports career consists of; (9) years of highly competitive soccer, including varsity high school soccer during my freshman, sophomore and junior years. My love for track began in middle school where I excelled and was chosen for multiple All-Star meets and was awarded the Monmouth County Sportsmanship Award. In high school, I found success running the 100M, 200M, 400M and sprint relays. After running a 59.1 400M at the 2016 New Balance Outdoor Nationals, I have set a personal goal to beat my high school’s 400M record of 56.66. Participation in the relay events is the most satisfying to me because I enjoy the camaraderie among my teammates. I would enjoy attending a school where my teammates share my enthusiasm for the sport.
I look forward to hearing from you. Thank you for any consideration.
