Matthew Drake Hig...Personal Statement
I am relentless in my work ethic and I will out-hustle the guy next to me - every time. As an 8th grader I made the JV Basketball team. Day-in and day-out I worked hard and earned a starting spot and played nearly every minute of every game, and I led the team in points that season. I made the Varsity team as a Freshman and continued to work even harder to earn quality play time. As a returner to the Varsity squad this past season as a sophomore and starter, I carried the role of a leader in every way - whether it be during practice, in the classroom, or on the court in a game...I know I have the responsibility to be a leader and a key member and motivator of my team.
While I am blessed to be athletic, my work-ethic is not to be surpassed. I am a strong leader in and out of the classroom and I am very well-respected by teachers, classmates, teammates, and coaches. My ultimate goal is to continue my education and career in basketball at the collegiate level. I will do what it takes to be successful in both.
