2012 HighlightsPersonal Statement
Ultimately as a person I wish to bring out the best in myself by acting as a leader, challenging myself, and confronting adversity. I expect it of myself to succeed at the highest levels in whatever it is, primarlily due to my strong values and convictions. Not only do I love football and competing, I believe it is one of the best ways possible to grow as a person and lead others around me. I am an extremely dedicated worker, motivated by myself, my family, teammates, and coaches. I love football for the commradery and the fact that no matter how well I do in a play, it doesn't mean a thing if 10 other guys don't execute; I rely on my teammates, and as a teammate I have to be accountable to them, and know we have eachother's back. I love football because it pushes you not only physically and athletically, but also mentally. I love football, but ultimately I want to act as a leader and a role model, focusing on my academics, which are very important to me. I strive for results and want to bring the best results out of myself, and lead as an example to bring out the best results in teammates. I believe in myself as a football player, teammate, leader, and person. Fortunately, I have alot of room to grow.
