2014 HighlightsPersonal Statement
My name is Martin Fitzwater a Junior Linebacker from a small school in nowhere, Wyoming. I can't stand the thought of not playing football after I gain my high school education. I have a 4.0 GPA and plan to keep this GPA as I continue my education. I scored a 27 on my ACT and plan to retake in December to better my score. I received All- Conference 1st team honors as a freshmen and junior, I also received All- State 1st Team honors my junior year. My idea is to be the best 6 second player I can be, a 6 second player is one that plays from start until whistle with every bit of talent and energy they have. I plan to be versatile and play any place I’m needed on the field I want to contribute to the success of the team as well as better myself as an athlete and a person. With the leadership qualities I possess I feel it necessary to work hard then others to drive them to be better themselves as well. Football is my one love and I’m 100% dedicated to this sport. I thank you for taking the time to read my statement and I hope you consider me as an athlete worth recruiting.
