2016-2017 HighlightsPersonal Statement
I have every intention of playing basketball in college. I want to play where I can make my biggest contribution, but would love to play for a successful program. I plan to major in Biochemistry, so a school with an excellent reputation supporting this degree - or one that will lead me into this master/doctorate program is important to me.
I have a high basketball IQ, and understand the work and mental toughness to lead, and win. I am not just a labeled team captain, but I am the voice in the locker room, and on the court. I am respected both offensively and defensively by my team and by our opponenets. Nothing is more important to me at this point in my life, than putting myself in a position both athletically and academically, to succeed in college.
