2016 Highlights #3Personal Statement
I want to play Division 1 college basketball and compete at the highest level to continue my basketball career. I want to do whatever it takes to help my team win on the offensive and defensive end of the floor just like I have demonstrated throughout my high school career. I have a high basketball IQ and am seen as the leader on my high school team which has several senior teammates. I am the best defensive player and rebounder on the team and enjoy making my teammates better every game. I am currently mentoring our sophomore teammates and helping them understand their role on the team just as I was mentored last year by our upperclassmen. I work just as hard in the classroom as I do on the court as shown by my +3.7 GPA and I'm most proud of my last semester grades that landed at 4.0!
