275 Words2 Pages

I love to win. Weather it be a soccer game, a rowing race, or a band competition. I always strive to be the best. This intertwines with school as well, setting the curve for a test or being used as an example for future projects. In the past four years I have won second in state for Stanton River Bank Rowing (SRB) Girls Junior eight plus, placed in state competition three times for Fleming Island High Golden Eagle Marching band, and received varsity letters from both schools. I started off my winning streak playing soccer (2004-2011) how ever I traded out my cleats for marching shoes in high school for the first three years. I played trumpet in the Golden Eagle Marching Band (2012-2015) and held first chair trumpet seat all three years.
