Lukas Buddensieck '22 Recruiting Profile

Experience makes the difference between a good and great player, but I've learned that hard work can create experience faster than time. Commitment to my team, is what allows me to push myself and my teammates through the hard walls that competition places before us.   In volleyball, sometimes it is necessary to take matters into your own hands, and in that situation I guarantee that crucial side-out to push the team through to victory.

When I trained with the USA Volleyball High Performance National Team Program my coach told me that I am "one of the most selfless athletes" they've ever coached. I take that as a major compliment and I enjoy getting my team fired up and winning. Energy is everything, and the energy of the team is absolute. I am a team player, and I hope to play for you.
