Personal Statement
As a child I was exposed to many different sports. However, no sport has positively impacted my life as much as the one sport I truly love - volleyball. Ever since I first started playing, I knew I wanted to play at the collegiate level, and am now ecstatic to be finally getting myself started in the process to make that dream come true. To this day, still nothing has made me happier than being able to play the sport I could not imagine being without. I am extremely grateful for all the opportunities I have been given and for the people in my life that love and support me. I am also very blessed to have been surrounded by amazing coaches and team mates throughout the years, whom I believe have had a positive impact on how I am as a person as well as an athlete. I love challenging myself in both athletics and academics with additional weight training, sand volleyball in the summer, and choosing to take classes which I know will make me a more focused student athlete. I can be counted on to stay optimistic, committed, and passionate about the game I respect and love. I love to share that passion with my peers. Ultimately, my goal is to attend a Division I school and do all I can to succeed in both my academic and athletic life.
