Personal Statement
My name is John Pettit and I am a senior at Geneva High School. Football is my passion and I want to play at the collegiate level. I started on the Varsity team last year at middle linebacker and ended the season with 36 tackles. 23 of those were solo and I averaged 4 tackles per game. One of my goals for 2020 is to lead our team in tackles. I am currently training 5-6 days a week with a professional trainer with a goal to become stronger and faster. This is on top of working out with my team during the week. I was selected to be a Team Captain for the 2020 season and am looking forward to helping lead my team to the playoffs. I work hard and have been told I am very coachable. The best way to reach me is my cell (630) 962-8956 or e-mail johnpettit2021@att.net.
Sincerely,
John Pettit
