July 2016Personal Statement
Goals and Aspirations
My goals and aspirations are to be able to play in college while getting a degree in Analytics. I have played baseball ever since I can remember and it is a dream of mine to be able to play at the next level. Additionally, school is also very important to me, and as much as I would love to play at the next level, I also realize it is important to have a backup plan. I hope that a college will be able and willing to help me succeed with both.
What makes you a good candidate for their team?
What makes me a good candidate is not only am I hardworking and competitive, but I am also a team player and a leader. Additionally, my parents have raised me to have proper manners, be respectful to others, and always have fun. These are all essential characteristics to move to the next level and help your team win.
What makes you different from other recruits in character, athletics and academics?
What makes me different from other recruits is that not only have I excelled on the field, but I have also put in my work in the classroom. Maintaining a high GPA is not always easy playing sports, especially when you have to travel a lot for them. This has taught me to build strong relationships with my teachers and learn to do my work on the road. In addition, this has taught me how to prioritize my time and get stuff done in a timely manner.
