Personal Statement

I am a leader who likes to be a role model for the team, I like to take on challenges and I'm a hard worker. My aspiration and goals for collegiate basketball are to play at the highest level and work my way up the ranks. I would be a good candidate because I'm a dedicated athlete who leaves everything out on the court. I work my hardest to get the team the win. I'm different to other recruits because I make an effort to get along with the players, coaches and the staff. I work on my athletic ability which will translate to my basketball game and I also work hard in the classroom which will positively impact my life after basketball.

I am coachable, and believe in the importance of creating strong working relationships with all involved in our team, as we cannot win when focusing only on yourself. I have an excellent basketball IQ and can handle being put under pressure. I am comfortable with the ball, can shoot confidently, and make the right decisions during hard games.

I'm looking for a college that is best fit for me and I will work hard for any college that is willing to recruit me.


Athletes I have played with and against:

  1. Taine Murray (Virginia D1)                                        
  2. Ben Gold (Marquette D1 and NBA academy)
  3. Zach Riley (Fordham University D1) 
  4. Tafara Gapare (multiple D1 choices)
  5. Kazlo Evans (Australia) 
  6. Sean Murphy (Nebraska D2)
  7. Dontae Russo Nance (NBL and NBA Academy)
