Personal Statement

My name is Morgan Tainter, class of 2022. I am a Softball catcher and utility player for the CT Lady Knights 18u Showcase Team. I am also a Volleyball Setter on the NFA  High School Varsity Volleyball Team. 

I am in my junior year of High School at Norwich Free Academy.  As a junior, I am excited to expand my knowledge and take a wider range of classes such as Kinesiology and Sociology.  As of now, I am interested in  two areas of study, they include Behavioral Sciences and Sports Medicine.  The mind and body have always been something I have been interested in because I love sports. It is important to know how to take care of the mind and body while playing high-level sports.

In addition to playing softball and other sports such as volleyball, I enjoy working out. I have been training with Andre Dixon at Dixon Sports Performance in speed and agility for 5 years.  Andre has helped me improve my athleticism along with being mentally confident while doing anything. 

Due to the current pandemic, I am hoping the remainder of my High School years will be the fullest they possibly can be.  I look forward to visiting and meeting College Coaches (any way I can)  to find the right fit for me both Academically and Athletically.  I am excited to go to college and learn on and off the field.
