2019 HighlightsPersonal Statement
I have been actively playing soccer since I was 6 years old. Playing soccer in college would be a dream for me because it would provide me a wonderful opportunity to play the sport I love while also receiving a high quality education. Being a part of a team sport has been a major part of my life and taught me personal skills I use today: leadership, communication, teamwork, pride and humility.
I have always set personal goals for myself academically as well. I was a part of the Scholar’s Bowl team from 6th through 9th grade, and some of my accolades include finishing 25th individually at the NAQT National Championship in Chicago out of over 900 students, placing 1st individually in Madison County, while captaining my team for three years. I am an avid reader and enjoy studying history, particularly major wars and American presidents. I have maintained straight A’s my entire life, and I have been a part of the Beta Club for three years. I was recognized in 8th grade as having the highest grade point average of all male students. Just this past month, I was inducted into the National Honor Society.
I am still undecided as to what I want to study in college. I don’t have a certain geography or size of a school already determined, but the size of the school is not as important as the field of study and other extracurricular activities it provides.

- MONTGOMERY – North-South all-star squads for tennis and golf competition will be included for the first time at the 23th AHSAA North-South All-Star Sports Week set for July 15-19 at Montgomery. Jamie Lee Director of the Alabama High School Athletic Directors & Coaches Association (AHSADCA) announced Thursday the boys’ and girls’ North-South All-Star squads for those sports as well as the teams set to compete in the annual North-South boys’ and girls’ soccer competition, softball and baseball competition. The AHSADCA, which operates under the auspices of the Alabama High School Athletic Association (AHSAA) will also host all-star games in football, and girls’ and boys’ basketball, volleyball, and boys’ and girls’ cross country during the All-Star Week. Those all-star rosters have already been released. Lee said he is excited to see the new sports that are now being included. “This gives us the opportunity to see up close the outstanding tennis players and golfers we have competing at our high schools across the state,” he said. “And out soccer talent is also second to none.” All-Star Sports Week was introduced in 1997 as part of the AHSAA’s annual Summer Conference. Prior to that time, only football and boys’ basketball all-star games were played. The soccer competition was added to the All-Star Sports Week along with girls’ basketball, volleyball and softball as the all-star game opportunities over the next few years. Cross country competition was added in 2016. “Our selection committees worked hard to select these all-stars from a strong list of nominations,” he said.
