Maria Danly '20 Recruiting Profile

I aspire to go to college and study more about nutrition, kinesiology and exercise science; I believe that I will find that to be an enjoyable experience in my life. I am interested in this field because sports is a passion for me and exploring that passion is where I feel I belong.  I also hope to compete in collegiate athletics.  Having competed in sports all my life,  I want to continue that at the next level. To accomplish both a successful academic and athletic career is a lifelong goal. 

I have always strived for high academics, high athletics, and high standards. I have been attending a faith-based school all of my life that has helped shape me into a person of high moral standing and great integrity. I enjoy working in a group setting as I feel that I place a high value in friendships and teamwork. I have been on many teams over the years and, in my experience, when we respect and work well together, we develop long-lasting friendships. The most competitively successful teams were also when I had the best relationships with my teammates. I also enjoy working to  improve my personal goals and by doing so I am able to contribute more to my group or team.  I have progressively challenged myself every year, asking more of myself each time. To date I have achieved most of my goals and am working harder on the ones yet to come.
