Personal Statement
Hi, my name is Sydney Wilcenski, a Senior at Watchung Hills Regional High School. This is my fourth year of playing volleyball and I love the sport. During my high school season, my freshman year I was on the Freshman Team at Watchung Hills as the starting middle hitter. Now, in my Senior year I continue as the starting middle hitter on the Varsity team as Captain. In club season, initially I played on a National Team as a starting outside hitter at Radiant Suns Volleyball (RSV)as a freshman. My sophomore club season I participated on the 16 National Black Force team at Central Jersey Volleyball Academy, finishing first in the GEVA 16Open division. We participated in the American division at Nationals in New Orleans, LA. Finishing 1st in Flight 3. Last year I was the starting middle hitter for 17 National VBRags Volleyball Academy. We finished 2nd in GEVA 17 open division earning a bid to Nationals in Indianapolis.
The last three years I had the pleasure of going around the nation to play volleyball in cities such as Indianapolis, Atlanta, Philadelphia, and Pittsburg to name a few. It was a great learning experience for me because I had the chance to play against girls that have been playing for many years and to see what I might become one day.
Along with sports, I also am in all Advanced or Honors classes in my High School. This year, I continue in advanced to AP level classes. My GPA based on my grades throughout high school, is 4.4. I haven't thought in depth about where I would like to attend college but I do know that I would like a traditional campus school that advances in both academics and athletics. I would also love to continue volleyball and play at a Division I, II, or III school.
