Lillie Leitschuh '28 Recruiting Profile

I am currently an 8th grader at Milaca Public Schools in Milaca, MN. This would be my 3rd year playing Volleyball, but I did not really start taking Volleyball seriously until a year ago. I started thinking about wanting to play Volleyball in College last summer. Since then I have been working hard. I have been attending Volleyball camps, private lessons with 4 different trainers, and attended vertical training 3 days a week during the summer with my Club team, along with training at my school during the summer. I went from being a player who was just there to hang out with friends, to starting lessons at the start of summer to then being asked to play for 9th grade A team as an 8th grader. I have been told by my coaches and trainers that I learn quickly and am what they call coachable. I am only 5'5" as an 8th grader, but I can currently jump just as high as my classmates that are 5'8". I love Volleyball, and work great with a team. I play all around so I can play different positions, though setting is my least favorite and OH, and OPP are my favorite positions. For my club team I mainly play OH, OPP, and Middle back. Outside of Volleyball I love to ride horses, and have recently taken up golf.
