Q4 2023 PinsPersonal Statement
I want to become the best wrestler I can be, and use that to get the best college education possible. I am different from other candidates because of my mental strength and work ethic, which is the best at my high school and my clubs. I have broad wrestling skills, and my best take downs are a high crotch, and a sweep single. On bottom I have a great sit out turn-in which moves next into a stand-up. On top I have a very strong half nelson and a very strong easton tilt. I'm confident I can be a great fit for any college team.

- ActivitiesMs. Paige Wells is in charge of Sports Medicine at Bluffton High School in SC. Ms. Wells teaches the topic, and she provides on-side support during the school's varsity competitions across all major sports. Based upon my success in Ms. Wells' 10th grade Sports Medicine class, she asked me to serve as on-site intern throughout the school year. I worked in real-time, with the pressure of a game and a crowd, to provide several injured athlete-students with the immediate care they required.
