Personal Statement
I am currently in my eighth year of playing volleyball; and, I love it. During these years, I have learned a lot about teamwork, leadership, commitment, and sacrifice. Throughout my years of club volleyball, I have been to Nationals, the AAU National Tournament, and the AAU Global Challenge in Europe; and, I like this higher level of competition. I have played as a setter in the past, but I am currently a hitter; and, I am willing to do whatever is needed for my team. On my 2015 varsity team, I played as an OH/OPP in the front row and a setter in the back row. I offered to play both positions because my team was lacking a second setter. I am currently the team captain for the Stockdale Mustangs varsity volleyball team; and, I am a 6-rotation OH. I was also the OH/DS for my club's 18s team. I am working with a trainer to increase my stamina and athletics on the court; and, I am training with Alfee Reft at PEAK Volleyball Academy to improve my skill and technique. I want to continue to improve and become the best player I can be. My goal is to play in the most competitive college volleyball program I can. I also want to attend a school where I can achieve my academic and career goals. I am a team player, a hard worker, and I am dedicated to the sport. I play well under pressure. I am rarely nervous and I can easily shake off a mistake. I am as cool as a cucumber. I have a fast arm swing and quick reflexes. I believe that my skill, personality, and commitment will benefit your team.
