Personal Statement
My name is Gracie Mumford and I'm going into my senior year at Twin Falls High School in Twin Falls, Idaho. Throughout my high school career, I've played on JV my freshman and sophomore years, and my junior year was my first year on varsity, and I am currently on varsity as a 5'10" middle. Although I did not see the court a lot throughout the season, I still worked hard to at least try and reach my potential as a player.
I personally think I bring some of the communication on the court. I talk a lot with the front row players, as well as our back row players and setter. I think that I have a bright personality and I bring some smiles and laughs to the court. I am a two sport athlete, playing volleyball and basketball, and I think playing multiple sports makes a person learn how to work with a team and grow from a team into a family.
Although sports are a big part of my life, school comes first. In school, I am a hard working student. This last year I had a 3.5 GPA, getting a few B's here and there. Being a student-athlete is hard at times, but knowing that your team is counting on you to be on the court with them and cheer them on, it's something that makes you work harder in the classroom.
