Serena Lun '24 Recruiting Profile

Hello! My Name is Serena and I've played volleyball pretty much my entire life! My long term aspiration is to go pro and play at least for the Australian Team, Volleyroos or become a teacher or dietitian. Volleyball is my passion; however, I would love to be in a position to help others and to assist my fellow athletes. I have the desire to learn more about the nutritional impact of athletes and how it relates/ impacts the athlete's performance/ sport. I also hope to have a stable career after Volleyball. I am interested in a school that challenges me mentally and piques my interests socially.
I am also interested in attending a school with a very competitive athletic program. I have a passion for the competitive environment. I am currently competing at a highly competitive high school and performing exceptionally. Volleyball is a sport I love and had the opportunity to shine at AVSC (Australian Volleyball Schools Cup), Nationals, State Champions, Junior Premier Volleyball League, as well as Regional Team. I hope to one day have an opportunity to compete at a professional level. 

What makes you a good candidate for their team?--
I am a leader amongst my peers; I am dynamic fast and versatile, able to play multiple positions well. Being a quick learner, I bring a lot to a team! I currently play libero for several teams, including Varsity (First Team), Nationals, State Team and Regional Team!

What makes you different from other recruits in character, athletics and academics?--
I'm very selfless and put my team before myself so that my team as a whole is successful. I was recently elected for the Puma Passion Award and Coaches Award for the varsity team. Through the program, I have shown a lot of leadership on and off the court. I have an open, encouraging, and enthusiastic style of leadership. I was the team assistant. As a leader of the team, I would nurture others to their fullest potential, something I have enjoyed most of my career. I strive to be an example for others to follow and help guide people to better themselves and improve together as a team. By emulating these leadership qualities, every team member has unique strengths and weaknesses that I help them identify and then improve on and off the court. Our team has an undefeated record in the regular season this year. I have several full athletic scholarships offers from some great schools! My other passion and hobby is Ice hockey, and I also play for the Australian Women's Ice Hockey Team as a Goalie.
