As a high school senior , I have played varsity basketball for 4 years. Over the years I recognize not only my growth as a basketball player, but as a young man. Today I recognize my obligation to my community, and it is my responsibility to give back at every opportunity. I set a goal of becoming a Sports Journalist, and hopefully highlight the players that go unnoticed, but have the ability to compete on the collegiate level. It’s been a tough road for me, but I’ll keep striving to reach my goal of competing at the college level.
