Derionah Abner '19 Recruiting Profile

Hi, I’m Derionah Abner, and I want to play collegiate volleyball at any position. I’m 5’7, and have been playing right side all three years of my volleyball career. I also have experience playing as a defensive specialist, and the positions middle back and right back. I absolutely love the game and it would truly be a blessing to have the ability to play at the collegiate level. My vertical is 34’8, which allows me to play at the level and above the level of most girls when it comes to height differences.  When it comes to my teammates, I want us all to succeed and I like to be the loudest cheerleader. Installing nothing but positivity, and the desire to win every point. Knowing that volleyball is an emotional sport and when the energy isn't so high, being able to lift everybody spirits and tell them to just play ball and take each play as if its your last is always the way to go.  Another goal of mine is too get my masters in Criminal Justice, due to me wanting to protect and make a difference in the lives of the people I meet and the community I reside in.
