Personal Statement
My name is Julianna Moreno and I am 17 years old. I am 5'7 and my weight is 138lbs. I attend Abraham Lincoln high school and I am co-captain of the girls wrestling team. Growing up with three siblings, all them being boys, was challenging and it definitely toughened me up. My twin brother started wrestling before me and I would always go to his tournaments. I saw how intense the sport was and immediately wanted to be a part of it. Before I started wrestling I did 3 years of jujitsu, the transition between jujitsu and wrestling were both beneficial and a bit of a struggle. During wrestling I learned to never stop fighting, I have related this to my personal experiences. To me that means to not give up and to persevere through the problems life throws at you. In high school my education is very important to me being a student athlete, the expectations I hold for my self are to get A's and B's and I will continue to carry this expectation with me while attending college. My parents have rasied me to be hard-working, respectful, disciplined, and to be a leader. I would really appreciate if you would consider me to be apart of your wrestling program.
