Player Bio

How would you briefly describe your gameplay style?

Strong defensive mind. Great rebounder. High basketball IQ and ability to see the whole court.

Can you provide a brief description of your mentality or personality?

Strong in mind and body. I can persevere through difficult tasks and situations.

Are you involved in any clubs, organizations, or have you received any non-sport awards?

Track and field Engineering outreach I have received several student of the month awards as well.

What skills or qualities have you developed, such as leadership, teamwork, or community service?

I am a team player. I have been playing team sports since third grade and have never had any problems. I lead my teams defense this year and my coach counted on me every game to set the tone for the game.

Have you faced any significant challenges? If so, please describe.

I had a coach that didn’t want to coach anymore due to multiple losses, this didn’t affect me and made me work harder. I persevered through the season to strengthen my skills and game. It has been hard to work on my post moves because coaches I’ve had pay no mind to the taller players and help with their skills.

What type of college are you looking for?

Undecided but probably a 4-year college. I hope to play basketball in college, so I would like to attend a college that has a strong community and work ethic.
