Personal Statement

I am a person who is driven to excel. My #1 goal is to become the best person I can be. Whether in the classroom or on the basketball court I strive to outwork everyone on a consistent basis.

As a Point Guard, and a leader on the basketball floor, it is my responsibility and desire, to work to help those around me become better. I strongly believe that the only success is TEAM success.

My individual basketball strengths are my ball-handling, shooting, quickness and vision. I am also making great progress in the weight room to improve my strength to compete at the college level.

I hope to make the most out of my college experience as I plan to pursue a degree in Business/Finance. Finally, I will represent my family, team and the University I attend with integrity and class.

Lone Star Invitational

Wisconsin Blizzard 16u - Kuranda went 4-0 on the weekend. DALLAS — The first weekend of the spring evaluation period came to a close on Sunday as the Under Armour Association, Nike EYBL, and NY2LA Association wrapped up Session 1… Jake Buchanan – 2020 – PG – Wisconsin Blizzard Buchanan had 19 points in a win on Sunday. We highlighted Buchanan last week as a potential breakout performer in spring and he lived up to the billing. Shaking off a slow start, Buchanan took over in the second half. A speedy guard that loves to change pace, Buchanan was shaking defenders and getting into the paint at will. A playmaker for his teammates, Buchanan created easy buckets for his teammates, setting it up by looking off defenders.
