Personal Statement
I am passionate about volleyball and would love to pursue it at a higher level, while attending a school with a great academic program. I believe I am a good fit for the libero/or defensive specialist position because I enjoy the responsibility that come with being a libero. I love the trust that comes with it. Trust is very important and key for when you’re playing, the connection with the team is probably the most rewarding. Personally I love being able to connect with the team I have.
As well as volleyball I am just as enthusiastic about academics. It is very important to me that the academic program and film program is just as great as their volleyball program. I would like to say I am very hard working and I love anything with a challenge. Being apart of a school where I have had to always be challenged as a student this really helps me when I play volleyball, I believe it drives me more to where I want to go.
I have learned a lot about the mental skills it take to be a libero. But these past few years have taught me being mentally strong is just as important as being physically strong. I personally try my hardest to focus on having a positive attitude even when there have been times mistakes have been made on the court, whether it was me who made the mistake or my teammates. One of my best character trait is never giving up even when we’re at our low I still play like we’re 24-24.
