Personal Statement
Volleyball has never been just a sport to me, it’s my passion. I’ve dreamed of being a collegiate volleyball player and would like to major in psychology or sports administration, maybe coaching one day. My travel club selected me to coach our younger players this year which I love and volunteer every Monday night.
I started playing travel volleyball at the age of 9 as a DS and then as a Libero. One of the highlights of my journey so far was my 13’s team coming in 3rd place at AAU Nationals and I was named an AAU National All American as Libero. Ever since then I was moved to playing all around, outside hitter and middle back on all my travel and high school teams. I’m hard working and motivated to support my teammates on and off the court. Every coach I’ve ever had has designated me to be the leader on the floor and told me they count on me and my positive energy to motivate my teammates. I work just as hard in practice as I do during games and if I make a mistake I will shrug it off and work even harder. I’m a hustler, one of my coaches said there is no wall, set of bleachers or even people on sidelines that I won’t go through to get a ball. I’m very coachable and will listen, learn and strive to make them proud!
