Personal Statement

    I play softball to have fun and to be with my teammates.  I love every inning, and I enjoy improving, because it makes me a better player and teammate.  Every time I step onto the field, anything that bothers me melts away. 

    I think my teammates and coaches would describe me as hardworking, dedicated, a good teammate, talkative on the field, and small, but strong.  They might also think of me as spunky and energetic.  My parents and coaches have told me that I never hang my head.  Whenever I make an error, I forget about it and focus on the next play.  If I miss a ground ball or strike out on an inside pitch, I work harder so I don't commit the same error twice.  

    I really want to be a primatologist or wildlife biologist, so I would like to attend a college with an exceptional Zoology and Biology program.  I have always loved to learn and exercise my mind as well as my body.  That is why playing softball while pursuing my career would be a dream come true.
