McKenna Billeck '17 Recruiting Profile

January 2017Personal Statement
My ultimate goal in college is to obtain my Bachelor of Science and continue on to pharmacy school with hopes of becoming a pharmacist by the age of 25, as well as play tennis throughout my educational journey. I have played tennis since I was 12 (2012) at Sprinker Recreation Center in Washington. There, I played 3 USTA tournaments and I received 3rd place and 1st place twice. I moved to Idaho in 2015, and I have attended Skyview High School (4A) in Nampa. I played on the Varsity Tennis Team for my sophomore year, in the 1st and 2nd girls singles positions, placed 5th at districts, and went to state. I skipped my junior year of high school in order to pursue my psychology career much sooner, but I plan to play tennis in the 2017 school year and I am determined to place at state. I do play singles, but I played in a doubles tournament in the 2016 season, and my partner and I took first. I am devoted to becoming the best player I can be, and I want to close out my high school career with big wins in the season. I also want to have the opportunity to play tennis at the college I attend, which is why I have only applied to schools that have good teams.
Thank you for considering me for your school.
