Personal Statement
Sports have always been a part of my life. They're what keeps me going and helps me succeed in everything. Track, specifically, has taught me to be patient and that success takes time and perseverance. Without my coaches and teammates, I would not be the student-athlete that I am today. Their trust in me throughout both winter and spring track is something that has built my determination to get the job done at every single meet. Although I may appear similar to other track athletes, I can promise that is far from the truth. My belief in putting 110% effort into something doesn't just stop at track, it's also applied in the classroom. I'm a firm believer in what one does in the classroom will have a major impact on what gets done on the court, track, and or field. "Never do something for nothing," is a quote I live by and will continue to introduce it to other athletes.
