Personal Statement

I do not remember a time when football was not one of the biggest parts of my life.  In the seven years since I began playing, I have never been the biggest or the strongest.  What I lack in size and strength I make up for by having the biggest heart and strongest work ethic of anyone I know.  Not a day goes by that I don’t push myself to become a better player, teammate, and leader both on the field and off.  It doesn’t matter whether we are studying film, lifting, running, or practicing plays I am always going to push myself and my teammates to reach new heights in everything we do.  I also know that there is more to life than football.

My father taught me when I was very young that the most important part of football was my grades.  I work as hard in the classroom as I do on the football field.  My parents, my coaches, and every teacher I have ever known will tell you that I give 100% in everything I do.  No matter what college I attend my goals will be the same.  To graduate with honors, be the best football player I can be, and to lead my team to the greatest seasons the college has ever known.
