Blake Simpson Ont...Personal Statement
I am very much looking forward to my college years as an opportunity for personal and professional growth. My goal is to explore the science/technology fields as I enjoy working complex tasks, problem-solving, and creating innovative products. I seek a college that will equip me for being a great student, humanitarian, and one with a great future beyond college.
On the field, I am a dynamic and a very focused ballplayer who honors and respects the game at all times. As a middle infielder, I take my defensive leadership role very seriously, leading by example making routine plays look easy and turning double plays. I contribute every game offensively with my bat, often batting top of the order and consistently putting the ball in play. I seek a college that will challenge me to be a great teammate and leader but also develop my tools to compete at the highest level every day.
