Coach ArnoldPersonal Statement
I am looking to attend a college where I can continue to play competitive Water Polo and gain a strong reliable education. I have played Water Polo for 3 years and been on Varsity for the last 2 years. Last year I was a starter and this coming fall I will be the varsity captain. I may have started Water Polo late but I have worked hard over the last 3 years, to increase my Water Polo IQ, strength and competitiveness. My passion and love of the game has earned me most inspirational player 2 years in a row and freshmen year I received most improved.
I believe that I would be a great addition to a competitive college Water Polo team because I love the game of Water Polo, always strive to work hard, improve my skills and create a healthy environment to engage and improve the team as a whole. I am eager to stay competitive and look for ways to improve my skills, I have been told many times that I am highly coach-able.
I am looking for a college that can not only meet my desire to be a collegiate athlete but also push me academically. I have a 3.46 GPA and have taken multiple AP and honors classes. My interests are in science and math, I enjoy building and constructing things. I am looking to pursue an engineer degree but I am not sure in what specifically yet. I love the outdoors, hiking, camping and geology.
