Alicia Owegi '22 Recruiting Profile

My name is Alicia and I am an aspiring college tennis athlete. I play for and train with the Kenyan National team, and have been doing so for about 6 years now. Here in Kenya, the pool of players is small and I end up playing with the same people over and over which doesn't improve my tennis as much as I would like. I would like to play college tennis because I want to compete against different players and train in a competitive environment everyday with my team. I make a good candidate because I love to compete and win but I am motivated to work hard whatever the outcome. I am also a good student in class and have been performing consistently well in all my exams. I have been working hard to get a scholarship as my parents have put in a lot to support me so far. A college scholarship would also help my parents take care of my other siblings academic needs.
