Personal Statement
I am Ryea’ Reed Jackson, a 6’1” MB/MH who attends IMG Academy. I was chosen to be a part of the 1st ever 16U volleyball team. I am originally from Dallas Texas, played my freshman year at Keller High School, and started at MH/MB earning 2nd Team All-District honors. My team also made it to the 6A State finals where we finished 3rd in the State for the 2022/23 season. I played my club years for Drive Nation Volleyball Club, Playing on the Top Teams for my 13s,14s, and 15s years. I am currently on the AVCA Phenom list and will be attending the AVCA Phenom Showcase in Tampa in December. I also was afforded the opportunity to train under the NTDP Winter series at the OTPC in Sept. 2023. I am looking forward to the upcoming Club season for IMG Academy 16U. This experience has been preparing me for my future as a collegiate player as well. From the 5 am wake-ups and practices to All of my School in the afternoons. I am an A/B Student who is interested in the medical field. But my love for volleyball is my biggest passion.
