Shawn Gillies Hoc...Personal Statement
I've always been a defensive player, but now, in my senior year of high school, my club coach has me playing right wing! I'm actually really good at it, and I already got moved up to be a starter! In the 3rd game of my varsity season this year, my high school coach also bumped me over to right wing.
My goals are to continue to find a Juniors team where I can boost my skills and have fun on the ice with my teammates, and then to continue on to play in college. I am really looking forward to the camaraderie and hard work of playing for a Juniors team for a few years and then the excitement and teamwork that comes with playing on a college team. I also really enjoy working out and running to keep myself in top shape for my sport. I always work as hard as I can in class because I know that there will still be life beyond sports.
