Eli Been

I am the youngest of three children and all of us are athletes. My brother plays division one soccer, and my sister ran division one track and cross country. My parents exposed us to sports at a young age and I am grateful they did. My involvement in athletics helped shape me into the person I am today and had a great impact on developing my character. As a student athlete it taught me time management and a strong work ethic. My drive to compete at the top level taught me humility and resiliency. I had to work for my place on the field and I had to learn how to lose and bounce back. My experiences have led me to be highly motivated to compete at the next level in college. Im prepared to handle adversity and continue to improve on the field and in the classroom.
