Personal Statement
I have been playing volleyball since 4th grade - in the backyard of my home, in the grade school gym, in small "club" tournaments. I have grown up with the sport and I don't want it to end at high school. I realize that it is the academics that will take me into the future, but my wish is that volleyball will be my companion along the way. I have a strong-willed desire to compete and to challenge my skill and my athleticism. I am a multi-sport athlete - gymnastics, softball, basketball, track. My history with gymnastics helped propel my flexibility and agility. I have a certain spark that can get my team going; I am so energetic. I am driven; I am passionate. What separates me from other recruits is that I have a relentless pursuit for balls that many girls think are not reachable. I read hitters very well and put myself in the best defensive position to dig balls. I have a desire to never back down from a challenge.
