Personal Statement
My name is Jaiden Monger and I am a setter/opposite who is willing to play anywhere as needed. I cannot put into words how much I love volleyball. I am a very good student athlete who handles school and sports very seriously. If I’m not doing school work I’m either in the gym or watching film. Although I love volleyball, I am a 3 sport athlete. I play basketball in the winter and compete in track in the spring. In the future, I would either like to help people through nursing or athletic training. Although those choices are ideal, I’m still interested in other medical training.
I am a very smart player and hustle everywhere on the court. Being a setter my whole volleyball career I have learned to read the court, my teammates, and the other team to give my team the best opportunity to be successful. Not only can I set, but I am a very strong defensive player. I love digging the “impossible” hits and am willing to throw my body on the ground to save a ball no matter what point, match, or game it is. As my head coach says, “Play to win, don’t play not to lose” and that is what I live and play by.
