Personal Statement
I am a Junior from one of the top public High schools in the United States, Scarsdale High school. Sophomore year I recieved an all league honorable mention award as well as an award from AVCA for outstanding academic performance. I have been playing volleyball for 5 years. I come from a family full of athletes, my brother is a boxer at the University of Massachusetts in Amherst and my sister is an athlete on the Cornell swim team. I want to follow in my families foot steps by becoming a great athlete and an amazing student. I want to attend college some where in the east coast preferably within 5 hours of my home. My father has been unemployed for a year and a half so I aspire to work as much as a can, increase my volleyball abilities and maintain good grades in school. I will work and train seriously in order to become an exceptional athlete and volleyball player. Volleyball was always precious to me and I will continue to advance my skills in this sport. I have played club for 3 years on travel teams and this year is my first year at Downstate Juniors VBC which is a promising and very competitive club team. In my freshman year I was the only girl in my grade that made the Scarsdale Varisty team in 2012 and I continued to be a starter in my sophomore year. I will continue to learn and succeed at my dream of being a college volleyball athlete.
