Personal Statement

My goal is to find a college that is a perfect fit for me athletically and academically.  I want to be a part of a "family" that holds everyone accountable to do their jobs, pushes me to be the best football player i can be, and also a school that supports me in my pursuit of academic success, and prepares me for life after graduation.   I believe I am a good candidate for a collegiate team because of my discipline, work ethic, commitment, and desire to compete at the highest level.  I am a good teammate that pushes my teammates to be the best of their ability.  One of my best attributes is that I never let my emotions get too high.  I'm able to remain calm in tense situations and I try to focus on the task at hand instead of letting the moment get to big.  I believe I can separate my athleticism from other recruits because of the multiple skill sets I have developed excelling in baseball and basketball.  With respect to character and academics I hold myself to high standards.  I attended Fork Union Military Academy in Virginia for my freshman year of high school.  As a military school, discipline was the cornerstone to both athletics and academics.  At Fork Union I played football, basketball, and baseball.  Discipline was always a part of our practices and it carried over into the classroom.  I made the Dean's List while I attended Fork Union Military Academy.
