Personal Statement

Hi, my name is Kenneth Best IV, I have been playing tackle football since I was four years old. Since I first stepped on the field, I have aspired to play at the collegiate level. I know that playing in college is a once in a lifetime opportunity that could change my whole life.

I am always working to improve my skills as well as training to get bigger, faster and stronger. I am a team leader on and off the field.  I try to lead by example while also encouraging my teammates. I am very coachable and strive to be one of the hardest working players and one of the hardest working recruits you’ll find.

In the classroom, I study hard and maintain a high GPA.  I am in the STEM program at my high school, Simon G. Atkins High School Academic & Technology, majoring in engineering.  My plan is to continue to purpose a degree in college in engineering.

I want to attend a college where I can push myself in the classroom and on the football field. I am open to all options and want to ultimately find the right college match at the highest level of competition possible. I hope to become a great role model to all my peers and make my parents proud.
