Personal Statement
To be honest, 7 years ago as a 5th grader at St. leonard grade school, I wasn't thrilled that my parents were signing me up for the school's volleyball team, but after one week of practice I was hooked. Later that year I tried out and made my first club volleyball team and I've been passionate about volleyball ever since.
Over the last seven years of playing volleyball, for school and club teams, I've had the opportunity to play various positions, including outside hitter, right side, setter, and even libero one year. Obviously, I love to hit, but being a setter has become my favorite position. I enjoy the challenge of being a leader, reading the defense, running the offense, and helping my hitters/team be successful.
In addition to volleyball, I'm also passionate about spending time with family, volunteering, and academics. My goal is to finish high school with a 4.0 GPA, while maintaining a balance between the other things in life I enjoy. I look forward to finding a college where I can continue to grow academically and continue to play the sport I love.
