#3 Junior year Va...#3 Sophomore year...
All American Bask...Personal Statement
I have been playing basketball since the fifth grade. Since I began playing on our local team I have been driven to get better on the court. I am good at driving to the paint and finishing at the rim with my speed and athleticism. I am a leader who encourages his teammates to positively effect the team. I make it a goal to be a hardworking player whenever I'm playing.
Off the court I work hard to keep a high GPA. I volunteer to help out at all the little kid camps we have for our future basketball athletes.
I would like to attend a college that'll push me in the class room to better myself and set me up to become more successful out of college. I am open to all options and would like to compete at the highest level while finding the right match for me. I hope to become a great role model to the people looking up to me and to make everyone who has supported me throughout my career proud.
