Personal Statement
Hi! My name is Sidnee Schwarz and I am a class of 2024 libero / defensive specialist. Thank you for viewing my profile!
I am a senior at Metro-East Lutheran High School in Edwardsville, IL and will play my 18u club season for Crossfire STL. My school season is underway and I have posted highlights from week #3 where we went 3-0. We compete in the Gateway Metro Conference and have tournaments in Springfield, Illinois, Belleville, Illinois and Bethalto, Illinois this season.
***PLAYER BIO***
As a kid I played every sport in the books. As I grew older my parents made me choose. I ended up choosing volleyball, and at that time I knew I wanted to play at the collegiate level. As a kid, I remember going to all my local high school volleyball games and watching the "big girls" play. I hoped that would be me one day. Now that I am in high school, I am slowly becoming one of the big girls and I hope that the young girls will look up to me like I looked up to the older girls. I started playing club volleyball at 13u for H2 Under Armour and will finish my club career playing for Crossfire STL 18u.
I consider myself a leader on and off the court while also leading by example. Every game and practice I push myself to be the hardest worker on the court while also making my teammates better. I not only strive to be the hardest working athlete, but also student. I study hard and maintain honor roll. I would like to find a college where I can push myself academically and athletically while being at the highest level possible.
I have learned lots of things from playing volleyball. Mostly, that there is a huge difference between playing the game and understanding the game. I have also learned that if you trust your teammates the game will flow much easier. I will always continue to work on my skills as a volleyball player, have a strong desire to win, be a leader, be coached, and be part of a strong team.
Thank you again for viewing my profile!
Sincerely,
#18
