Maya Witherspoon ...
2017 Full GamePersonal Statement
My name is Maya Witherspoon and I am a 5'7" shooting guard at Issaquah High School in Issaquah, WA. I am a passionate and driven person both athletically and academically. Sports have taught me many things such as time management, teamwork, and commitment. Playing basketball in college has always been a goal of mine and I am striving to achieve this goal. My main focus as a student athlete is to maintain high academic standards as well as strengthening my mental and physical game. A school in which I can learn from other people and make an impact would be ideal. I would also like to go to a school with a good environment where I can find a balance between the academics and athletics. I am open to different types of schools, however, I would prefer a school that has less than 20,000 students and courses in which I can major in pre-med.
