Personal Statement

Hello, my name is Kenneth.

I am a 17-year-old senior at Esperanza High School.

My goal is to wrestle for an NCAA Division 1 college. I want to use my love for wrestling to obtain an athletic/academic scholarship while pursuing a bachelor's degree in Business or Economics.

I love wrestling because it is challenging and fun. I like coaching other wrestlers and helping them improve. Wrestling teaches you mental and physical toughness. It teaches you to be disciplined because you must work hard and make weight.

Apart from my passion for wrestling, I enjoy making money in the stock market, buying and selling virtual trading cards, weightlifting, and having fun with my friends.
