3 sport athlete (...Personal Statement
I love to compete. I love to win, and I search for ways to improve when I lose. I also love to see others succeed, especially my teammates. I play three sports; basketball, softball, and tennis. If I could, I would play more sports. It's not just the competition, but it's also the preparation and execution of a game plan that I love. I get a rush when I see everything I have prepared for and everything I have strategized about unfolds right in front of me in the hopes that my determination will best my opponent's determination. These lessons carry over into the classroom and life for me. It makes me happy, and I am genuinely a happy and supportive person. I firmly believe it is this passion, drive, and supportive personality that I have that will contribute to a collegiate program. I appreciate any time any coach gives me. Thank you.
