Personal Statement
My collegiate goal is to play Division 1 volleyball while obtaining a 4 year degree. I am very dedicated, as my family and I have traveled 2 hours each way to practice twice a week and every weekend for the past 2 years. There is not a competitive volleyball club close to my home so we must travel to the Saint Louis area where there are multiple competitive clubs and training facilities. I have been practicing with my school's varsity team since i entered the 7th grade. This has pushed me to play bigger than my age.
While i have been training as a middle, I love to play defense even though I am 6'0", my goal as I start my high school career is to become the best "all-around" player ever to come out of my school. My mom, my aunt and my grandma have all graduated from Payson High school and i want them to be very proud of me. That is one way i can pay them back for all their support.
I have been on the High Honor Roll every semester and i plan to maintain my 4.0 gpa as I enter my first year of high school.
