Personal Statement

What I want to be is great. When I ask myself what is the meaning of being great I come to the conclusion of being the best version of myself possible. I believe in the ability to grow as a student and athlete, over this last year it has been a journey because I truly realized what I have to do to be great. Having a never satisfied mentality on and off the field has fueled me to get 1 percent better everyday as a person, leader, friend, family member, teammate, player, and most importantly a student. Playing a college sport is a blessing and a privilege a lot of people dream about accomplishing one day. This blessing and privilege comes with a lot of sacrifices, sweat and studying. I am taking the steps I need to be great and I want to accomplish my dreams and aspirations with the family that wants to help me.
