Personal Statement
My name is Vance Katzfey, and I am no stranger to hard work. My hustle and effort are on display with every rebound, every steal and every defensive pressure. And I look forward to putting that hard work in with my college studies, as I carry over a 3.68 GPA and college preparatory classes to a Business Administration degree, and a successful career in the business world.
On the basketball court I was All-Substate, first team all conference, and started as shooting guard, averaging 20 points, 6 rebounds, 2 steals and 2.5 assists per game. My high school, Boyden-Hull, won the Siouxland Conference and was ranked 2nd in the state in division 2A. I also was MVP and leading scorer at the American State Bank High School All-Star Game. My AAU team was the South Dakota Attack most recently, and Martin Brothers before that.
On the football field I was All District Academic Team, starting at wide receiver and defensive back on the Iowa state runner up Boyden-Hull/Rock Valley team.
I also ran track all four years, qualifying twice for Drake Relays and was a state qualifier in the 400m in 2021.
And finally, I enjoy giving back to the community as a Mass altar server, Meals on Wheels volunteer, Knights of Columbus Persons with Intellectual Disabilities Drive worker, and helping with various church fundraisers and events, including Mary’s Meals.
