Personal Statement

My goals for my college career are to get a quality education and play football wherever best suits my needs and wants.  I am a leader on my current team, I show up early and stay late and attend all workouts outside of our regular practices.  I strive to always have at the very least a 3.0 GPA.  I am part of the criminal justice program, where I am earning college credits while also taking honors classes, keeping up with football, working, and serving with my church youth group, where I am also a leader.   I was honored to be called up to the Varsity team my sophomore year and was able to beat out a senior for his position.  I am honest, coach-able and always strive to improve my skills.  

Losing my dad to cancer influenced me to strive to be the best I can be on and off the field.  It motivated me to take advantage of everything that is offered to me because you never know when you may lose it.   I started football when I was 12 years old just for fun.  I enjoyed it more than anything else.  I've learned a lot through playing football, but most notably I learned that as long as you can trust the people beside you, you can accomplish anything, not just on the field but in life.
