Two quotes I live by are "hard work beats talent when talent doesn't work hard" and "champions do not become champions when they win the event, but in the hours, weeks, months, and years they spend preparing for it." I've been playing volleyball since 3rd grade and at SPVB for 4 years. At the end of the day, I truly believe that no matter what the score is, no matter who wins or who loses, if you leave it all on the court, give 110%, and play with "no regrets", then you leave the gym, a champion.
