Joshua Ortiz Skat...Personal Statement
I began skating at 2 years old and I am a player looking to go as far as I can in my hockey carrer. I have always wanted to play NCAA Division 1 hockey and NHL in the future. I believe I would be a good fit for a team as I am hard working, good at taking coaching when ever possible, and have the atitude of waking up every morning wanting more for myself, and my hockey dreams. I try to keep every aspect of my life open to new things, and strive to keep my grades up as well. I am an A student with a well rounded background and I have traveled the world.
