2021 US Marine Co...Personal Statement
I began wrestling in 1st grade and have since fell in love with the sport due to the friendships I have gained, life lessons I have learned and the thrill of competing on the mat. Athletically, I aspire to attend a college that would help me grow both on and off the mat during my collegiate career. Outside of wrestling, I also have academic goals and aspirations. First, I aspire to complete high school with a minimum of a 3.6 GPA, while also completing multiple dual credit classes in order to pursue my passion for engineering in college. My coaches would describe me as a committed wrestler who always gives my all on the mat and always strives to get better. Someone that is not only committed to my own personal growth, but also to the growth of the team.
