Student Success Statement

              "what you are as a person is far more important than what you are as a basketball player"

To me this statement means that no matter how good you play that doesn't determine the person you truly are. you can be the best basketball player but it means nothing if you cant seem to be a good human being, an individual with morals, goals, and aspirations in life. Meaning you can win millions of games but what is most important is who you are as an individual and with other people. Even if you don't win a game what matters is what you have on the inside and what good qualities you have to offer others and so others can learn from you.
