January 2018Personal Statement
Hello
I can tell you about my collegiate goals and aspirations that since I started my high school, I have been interested in civil construction, projects about construction buildings or road infrastructure. Always I´m interested in programs and articles that show mega constructions, because it allows me to know how the Engineers and Architects planned those buildings considering the environment and facilities for people.
I can contribute a lot to the University team with the different pitches that I have (Fastball, Curveball, Changeup, and Splitter), also I have self-control on the mound and I can helpstrengthen the team´s defensive, building trust and inspiring the rest of my playmates to get good results in the Games. In the same way I have excellent health conditions that allow me to pitch above 90 pitches in a game, allowing the team´s coach optimize their pitchers throughout the tournament.
I can differentiate among other recruits because I have a good academic and athletic performance, I have been manage to keep these two aspects of my life with excellent results so far and I believe that I can continue to maintain good academic results that allow me to reach my college degree and in the same time help my baseball´s team to achieve excellent results too.
