Nick Hernandez Hi...

Personal Statement

I want to wrestle in college because it's something I enjoy doing. Ive been wrestling since I was in first grade, but I really didnt get serious until 5th grade. I believe im good enough to wrestle at the next level, and I try to show it when i step on the mat.

I'd be a asset to the college and wrestling program because im respectful, work hard, and I try to do well in school. I know my right from wrong, I'm a great listener, and I am coachable.

My goals are to wrestle divsion 1 or division 2. In college I think I would want to study business or criminal justice. I always thought being a cop or detective was interesting so maybe I can get my degree in something that would help me persue a career in law enforcement.
