Personal Statement

Hello, my name is Ben Kester. I have always dreamed of becoming a student athlete, continuing to play the sport that I love and obtaining my degree in business or marketing. I believe my experience playing both competitive field and box lacrosse along with my travel youth ice hockey past as a defenseman makes me an ideal candidate along with my first commitment to my high school studies/grades. I am looking to make a difference both in the classroom and on the field this year as a Junior at Legend High School. Did I mention I love to practice? Playing lacrosse and making great passes to teammates, scoring goals, grabbing ground balls, creating turnovers and playing great defense are the results of the time I put in with my team on the practice field. I enjoy working with my teammates and growing together as a team. I believe that is what makes me different.

I hope I am provided the opportunity to apply to your school. Earning my degree while playing the great sport of lacrosse would be a dream come true.
