2017 HighlightsPersonal Statement
"When Your Legs Give Out, Play With Your Heart"-Unknown
I love this quote because it shows passion, hard work, and determination. Field hockey is my life and I don't know what I would do without it. One thing my coaches would say about me is that I am such a team player. I really understand the concept of the team trumps the individual and how it's all about the team. What really helped me realize this, was my high school team's state championship game in 2016. One of our defenders saved an amazing shot from behind our goalkeeper, and if she had not saved that shot, we wouldn't be 3 time Division 1 Michigan High School Field Hockey State Champions. This really showed me how it's all a team effort.
I am a great candidate for your team because I am a team player and I always give 110%. I have a passion for intense, relentless field hockey. I revel in finding out how much grit and toughness I have every time I step on the field. After high school, I hope to continue my education while playing field hockey for an elite, high intensity program, at the highest level possible.
