Ability: "Grace is very gifted athletically. She moves very well side to side and has a great vertical. She is explosive and is capable of using either foot. She has not reached her full potential yet, so Grace has the ability to improve even further and is putting in the work to get better each day."
Personality: "Grace is a fantastic person and a joy to be around. She has a strong minded personality and is a great teammate. She was selected a team captain by her teammates. Grace is the type of person you want to have on your team because she is a team first player that will do whatever she can to help the team be successful."
As a starting player on Varsity as a freshman, I was a little nervous knowing I had a lot of pressure on myself. But soon i realized that I was capable of playing on Varsity and won Co-Newcomer of the year for our district. My sophomore year was another amazing year by defeating our rival and winning district, and I also made first team all district. I just finished up my junior season with another good year and making playoffs and receiving Defensive Player of the Year for my district.
I'm very excited about my upcoming senior year, by being on Varsity since my freshman year I've learned how to dedicate myself to something, the importance of teamwork, and commitment. I'm looking for a college that fits me the best not just athletically, but also academically. I believe that I have the drive, work ethic, and leadership to compete for a team.
