Samantha Stephens '25 Recruiting Profile

My goals and aspirations are playing volleyball in college while pursuing an academic degree to become a veterinarian. I am a very happy, uplifting, caring person, even when we are down a couple of points in a game that doesn't mean we've lost. I encourage my teammates to keep cheering and encouraging themselves and each other, so that we can become stronger individually and as a team. I also encourage my teammates to correct and lift me up. I am different from other players in that I am able to take initiative and maintain a healthy diet along with working out everyday. I maintain my grades and school while playing volleyball. I take initiative with my grades and academics by communicating with teachers and coaches as needed. I'm very outgoing and enjoy playing on a team. I'm versatile on the court and always willing to do and/or try whatever the coach asks of me. I'm primary libero, a DS and starting to train as a setter. I put the work in and always give my best on the court.
