Personal Statement
Since age of 13, Volleyball has made a huge impact in my life. It has allowed me to push myself both mentally and physically in ways I never imagined, and continues to do so. I always strive to put my best foot forward and bring positivity to my team as well as strive for excellence in my academics. I have been playing volleyball for over 4 years now, both club and school. Growing up, I tried other extracurricular such as softball, dance, basketball. None of those sports sparked my drive/interest or grabbed my heart as well as volleyball does. As soon as I started volleyball in 7th grade, I immediately fell in love with it! The team component is extremely special to me. I grow closer to my team and strive to be a positive voice to them. Looking back on all this, I knew i didn’t want my career to end with high school/club. I know want to play on the next level and will work tirelessly to attain that goal. I continue to welcome feedback from those more knowledgeable in the sport than me. With that feedback and encouragement, I look forward to seeing what the future holds for me with volleyball as well as college.
