Personal Statement

I began playing travel volleyball half-way through 7th grade and have attended a multitude of camps through out the years. Some of these being A2 in Rock Hill, South Carolina in summer 2019 and I have also attended a Penn State camp 2018 and 2019. In 2019, my travel team earned a bid and attended the Boys Junior National Championship in Dallas, TX, although my team didn’t go as far as we could have, it was great learning experience to play against better talented teams. 

In Fall 2019 school season, my team had one of its best seasons in a long time going 11 and 3 and although we lost first round of playoffs, we had quite the team. Even though my 2020 travel season was shortened due Covid-19,  we still were able to earn a bid to Nationals in Reno in Summer 2020, and have posted highlight reels from 2020. I have been playing beach in Summer 2020, but lost in the semifinals in our only summer tournament in Atlantic City, NJ. In 2021, I continue to play beach, and earned a bid in the 2x2 to nationals in California, and my indoor club team, we just earned a Bid to Nationals in KC at Rochester Can-Am!

I remain a well-rounded student and athlete.  I am currently a rising Eagle Scout plan on completing my project this year.  After graduating from high school, I am plan on attending college to study business/finance while playing college volleyball.  I procured my lifeguard license in summer 2020, and have started working part-time in a grocery store, while continuing my VB and physical training at home with my brother.
