2017 MVHS Highlig...Personal Statement
I am a rural, Mid-American girl who has been raised on traditional values. The only thing in my home valued more than education, athletics, and service is character. I have been taught that, in every decision or direction in life, character guides the way. I know this may sound old-fashioned to some, but I believe it is a truism in all facets of life.
My future college coach will not only discover my honesty, loyalty and integrity, but also that I am hard working, driven and competitive as well. Early during my junior year in high school, I received a serious ankle injury and was out for 5 months following surgery. Afterwards, I worked very hard in physical therapy, as well as on the court, to recover in time to play my Senior season.
While at Allen Community College, I have only continued to get stronger on and off the court. I am current Co-Captain and starter of our 2021-22 team and have a 3.9 GPA while pursuing a career in medicine .
The college team I play for will value the traits I bring, as well as player development and success on and off the court.
