Personal Statement
Hi my name is Grant....
I am really excited to start this 2018/19 club season! I am playing for OCVC 18 Black this season. I am honored once again to serve as team captain. My high school and club coaches say they love how I lead by example, always give 110% effort and commitment, and strive to learn and improve my game whenever possible.
Besides volleyball, my priority in looking for a college is a school with strong engineering and academic programs. I am fairly open to school size and location and will consider any opportunities presented to me. The idea of being a student athlete in college is exciting as I love the competition and comradery.
For some background information -- I started playing volleyball my freshman year of high school and after a few practices I was hooked! After that first high school season I started playing club. I was fortunate enough to align myself with a club director/coach who continually focuses on individual improvement as well as technique. I initially played with United VC for 3 years and this summer was offered a coaching position to help out with some of the younger players and teams during summer camps. It was rewarding and fun to take on a leadership role in the sport and I feel my strengths as a team captain and leader will guide me as I continue work with the younger players and as I transition into college.
