Adam Wright ‘24 Recruiting Profile

Personal Statement

I am a hard-working student athlete that knows what is needed to get to the next level.  When I see a challenge I never take the easy way out. I am highly invested in my work as a student and an athlete and I always look for new ways to learn.  I take pride in my academic prowess, and I work hard for the grades I receive.  I am an extremely determined person who does everything to the best of my ability.  Whether it comes to making weight, or practicing, I always show up with a great competitive attitude.  I am a very competitive person who will never give up in the face of adversity.  I have had many successes athletically and academically because I am a truly diligent and determined person who is no stranger to rigorous academia and I have never been afraid to work hard.  Being a student at a rigorous boarding school in the North East, I have become more self sufficient as a product of living on my own.  I know what it takes to be a collegiate athlete and Hotchkiss has given me the tools to become a successful one.  I have also learned what it means to be a good teammate, and to be a productive member of an academic community.  As a result of my academic journey at Hotchkiss, and my athletic journey thus far, I believe I would be a great pick for admission at your university.
