Personal Statement
My name is Jacen Hansen. I am a Senior from Valley High School graduating in 2021, and I am a member of the Valley 3A 2019-20 State Champion wrestling team. Valley High School has won 5 of the last 7 state titles. My record this year was 23-13. Due to the immense talent in our wrestling room, I have not yet proven myself at the state level. Despite this, I was credited for helping us to beat our rivals, Eaton High School, for the Conference championships when I pinned their 132 lb wrestler in 3:07. While this was a team win, our coach made a specific effort to insert me into the lineup, knowing this would secure our victory.
I have been wrestling since I was 8 years old with the Valley Youth Wrestling Club. Next year, I WILL qualify and place at state. Wrestlers I have consistently bested over the years have gone and placed at state at all class levels of Colorado wrestling. I believe in my talents, abilities, and potential. I am consistently recognized as one of the hardest workers in the room at any given time, and I wish to continue my wrestling career into college.
I am also very interested in Computer Engineering or Computer Science. I hope that I have interested you in my abilities. I guarantee that I can improve the competition in your wrestling room. Please follow me this upcoming senior season as I strive to accomplish the goals I have set.
