Personal Statement
Please view my highlights and information at:
Justin is going into his Senior year as an athlete at Covina High School, and with all of his potential, he is worth keeping tabs on. Justin is broadening his horizons and exploring all options for his future education and sports career. Justin has every capability of being an all season athlete as he has a natural ability and interest in multiple sports. In order to maximize his potential and truly prepare for College academically- Justin is part of the Covina High Avid Program and is currently mentored by his Freshman Football Coach and AVID teacher, Kevin Glaspy.
This is Justin's third year playing team sports in an organized setting- the breakthrough talent he brings coupled with his desire to learn and ability to execute makes Justin a force to be reckoned with.
While Justin's passion is Basketball, his new exposure to organized sports has not only peaked his interest in Football and Track, but it has also unleashed his raw natural abilities and talents. Strong, powerful, and armed with speed and agility- Justin is a well rounded player and team mate. Executing his instruction with precision has allowed him to be a clean slate for his coaches to teach, mold, and develop. Justin's first year playing tackle football for the Covina Colts has resulted in a leading number of sacks and a immense amount of personal growth that earned him elevation to the Varsity team for the Colts 2012 playoffs. His Sophomore year was more of the same dedication and success. This past 2014-15 year of football showed how Justin can be agile and dominant as he racked up the sacks and tackles, as well as made key defensive plays that helped the Colts make the playoff season yet again.
Now, completing his third year in Football, and his second year in Basketball Justin is focused on making his Senior year a stand out year in sports.
Justin's strong support system of family, teachers, and coaches has allowed Justin to focus on his ultimate goal- to obtain placement on a college level team with a University that allow him continued growth in both athletics and academics. A well rounded young man, Justin places importance on determination, loyalty, and hard work in order to develop character and skill. He has all the makings of a powerhouse athlete with leadership abilities and genuine qualities.
The sky is the limit for this driven young athlete.
