Maya Pelayo '19 Recruiting Profile

Having the opportunity my freshmen year to swing Varsity is when I fully saw I had potential to pursue this program to the next level. My Sophomore year I created a impact at my highschool being the only sophomore in the starting lineup, we went on to beat several big schools that year.

This year I had a major transition from a private school to a public school. Even with the obstacles of ineligibility due to my waiver not being approved part of the season, I fought for my case to reverse it. Immediately after my team went from a overall 2-5 ranking to a 12-5 through out the season, defeating a big school that we hadn’t in over three years. Two Seniors and I had received honorable mention from our school during regionals. 

Although volleyball is my passion, I also run track and had previously played softball and basketball my freshmen and sophomore year.  My overall athleticism is a major accomplishment that I am always pursuing to excel further inside the weight room and on the court no matter the level of play. I’m looking for a college that can push me not only as an athlete, but also help me pursue my career in the medical field in preparation to enlist into the Airforce after. I hope to be part of your community soon !
