Madeline Soper '21 Recruiting Profile

My collegiate goals and aspirations include getting involved in at least one extracurricular activity/campus organization, taking at least one class that has nothing to do with my major, go to at least five of my colleges' sporting events, getting a 4.0 at least twice, finding a potential internship, obtaining the skills I need to pursue my chosen career, and develop a personal code of values and ethnics. I have many more that I haven't listed, but I believe that holding myself to higher standards will help me reach my goals and show me that I am capable of more.

I may not be great in a certain position, but I will work my hardest and put in all my effort until I can do it without any faults. The amount of effort that I put into something is the most important thing to me. Other recruits may say the same thing, or that volleyball is the most important thing to them, or it's their passion, and that they'll do whatever it takes to play in college. I'm no different than them because volleyball is my most important passion and I will do whatever it takes to be able to play in college. 

My team, we started as just teammates. Then we became close. After that, we all became friends, then best friends, then a family. Any team that I'm on, it'll become my family.
