Personal Statement

           

             I am an aggressive power forward , who can shoot 3 point shots, drive to the basket and play aggressive defense. My  long term goal is to play basketball for a Division I program and receive my college degree.  I am a good candidate for any team because I can become the leader and step up when needed. I like to get everyone involved both on and off the court. When on the court, I am a team player and will pass the ball to get open shots.  l am always looking for a way to either get someone open or get an assist . I play a large role in leadership on my teams by being able to play the point guard position when needed and to slow the ball down to run our sets.  I'm also able to make the right decisions for my team when placed in difficult game situations.   Off the court,  I am able to get everyone involved in the classroom by asking people their ideas and take those ideas to create better ideas for projects and more. 

             I am different from other recruits by being able to run all positions on the court while being the size I am.  Many centers and power forwards aren't able to play certain positions while I can play them all. I am also different from other recruits academically by being able to lead my team to a undefeated season while maintaining a 4.26 GPA. When in school I always try my hardest to get good grades and put as much effort into my school work as possible. In school, I found myself being asked to take part in the National Junior Honor Society(NJHS) and I take this invite as a compliment and very seriously.   As a member of NJHS, I have to maintain a high GPA every semester and being able to do so is just one more differentiator between myself and my competitors.
