As a student Athlete, I not only want to be able to keep above average grades, but to also play the sport I love. I think the role as a student athlete will help to better prepare me for real world successes through the valued experiences of teamwork, cooperation, and determination. By allowing the process and demands of being a student athlete to further develop my key qualities, I hope to one day be a successful business owner and entrepreneur. A critical thing I hope for in my college selection is a school large enough for great networking opportunities but also a high enough level of academic excellence to challenge myself to always achieve above and beyond.
