Efren Villanueva '21 Recruiting Profile

I am very passionate about volleyball and would love to play at a high level while attending a school with rigorous academics. I believe I am a gold fit for the setter and opposite positions because I like the challenges that come with it. For example, when I am setting I love the mental aspect of quick decision making that is unique to the position. As a leader — captain of my club team— I take on many responsibilities, I am a very supportive teammate and like to help others whenever I get the chance to. That being said, I am a  very determined and hardworking individual who will always give 100% on and off the court. Thanks to all of my hard work, I have been able to improve a lot over the past year, and can not wait to see at what level I will be playing at by the end of high school!

I am just as passionate in my academics. My interest in math and science draw me to education and business. Problem solving and teamwork are common aspects to business and setting which would explain my attraction to both. 

Finally, I was able to take a trip to Las Vegas, Nevada over the winter of 2018 with my family which was amazing, I was not only able to capture the beautiful sites but also the lights of the city at night! I loved that I was able to experience this with my family and able to learn more about my country.
