2021 SpotlightPersonal Statement
My goal is to achieve an academic and/or sports scholarship to a College or University to play basketball and earn a degree in Mechanical Engineering. I would be a good candidate for a collegiate team because I am a team player, very coachable, and a leader on and off the court. I have a great work ethic, and I understand how important academics are as a student athlete. I'm a "Traditional Style" PG who loves to pass & get teammates involved, plays defense, knocks down open shots, and scores at will when needed. Nothing fancy, I just get the job done.
I am a person of high character and integrity; very respectful, and a hard working, honest person. When it comes to academics, I strive to maintain a 3.5 GPA and I understand that I can't take any shortcuts with my learning. In athletics, I work hard to continue getting better as a player and being the best I can be. I listen and pay attention to my coaches and trainers and while I want to be the best, I know I don't have to be the best person on the court to make an impact on the game for my team.
