Daisy Maunupau '21 Recruiting Profile

I have played tennis for as long as I can remember, and it is my greatest passion. I've always wanted to play collegiately as I've watched and even played against some great college players. My dream is to play D1, but as long as I can play in college, I will be happy. I grew up playing team tennis, individual tournaments, and also play on my high school team with my sister. I also played Club basketball and continue to play on my high school's varsity basketball team, so I am used to being on a team and what it means to be a good teammate. I have a one-handed backhand, unlike almost all of the girls I play with and against, who have two-handed backhands. I believe that this brings a different style and more variety to a team. Being a student-athlete and having played sports at a high intensity most of my life, I've learned how to manage my time with academics.
