September 2018Personal Statement
My collegiate goals are to be both the best academic student and athlete I am able to be. I am a hard worker and will always give 100% toward the goals I have set. I am teachable, motivated and committed to achieving my goals. I have set my priorities, in working toward those goals, in order, and have learned that balancing them is the key to success. I think one of the things that help me set and learn these morals were my past coaches and family memembers. Since a young age I have always been taught if I want soemthing I gotta get up and go get it with full effeort. Wether it be academics or athletics. I’m willing to give my all.
I have achieved Honors in three of four quarters in my freshman year and received a final grade of 4.0 in my JROTC class. I was promoted from the rank of Private to First Sergeant in this class, which is representative of my leadership qualities, which I use on the baseball field as well. I understand the importance of loyalty, duty, respect, selfless service, honor, integrity and personal courage. These are values that will serve me well in any endeavor I seek.
