Taylor Curry '20 Recruiting Profile

2019 HighlightsPersonal Statement
My name is Taylor Curry. I am a 5'9" Middle and Outside Hitter for Dieterich High School and Extreme Elite 18 Club. I have played volleyball for my school since the 6th grade and became a varsity starter my sophomore year. I am extremely committed to volleyball and I believe that I bring drive and passion to every game and practice that not only help myself, but encourage my team as well. I have attended many volleyball camps and workshops outside of school to constantly improve and learn skills to better myself and my team. I'm a team player that is driven, and dedicated to volleyball as well as school. Academically, I work hard as well. I maintain a 3.6 GPA and strongly believe in working hard in everything I do in addition to volleyball. I am a member of business club, athletic club, art club, drama club, library club, chorus and marching & pep band. I have a passion for playing the flute, which I have been doing for the past eight years. My goals after high school are to continue playing volleyball and further my education. I am hoping to major in Physical Therapy. Thank you for your consideration.
