Skye Smolinski '23 Recruiting Profile

I am a dedicated, passionate, responsible, strong, player and supportive teammate. I am extremely coachable and work to my highest potential both on and off the court. My positive attitude has allowed me to work well with my coaches and teammates and although I am a very competitive person, I never lose respect for my coaches, teammates, or myself. I strive to give my best at all times and like to be pushed by my coaches to always take it up another level. I started playing competitive volleyball when I was eleven and have played indoor club volleyball for the past six years and beach volleyball for the past four years.  At the end of this past summer, I decided to be a beach only player except for playing for my high school varsity team. I was the starting six-rotation outside hitter and was selected for "Second Team All-Conference". Playing outside hitter for all six rotations as an indoor player has prepared me to be an aggressive all-around beach player. 

My goal as a player is to continue volleyball through the collegiate level. In my college search, I am looking for the best fit academically and athletically to allow me to play beach volleyball all year round.
