Personal Statement
I have wanted to play college volleyball for as long as I can remember. I started playing at 12s so I still have a deep passion for the sport. I have a team first mindset and will do whatever needed for the betterment of our team. I also am very hardworking both on and off the court. I am looking to receive an elite education while striving to compete for a championship. I am ambitious and try hard to excel in all areas.
Volleyball keeps me focused and organized. My team is my second family. The bond is unbreakable and gives me people to lean on as we do life together. Academics are also very important to me. I am looking for a school that will allow me to pursue my dream of becoming a veterinarian while playing volleyball. I am looking for a college experience that allows me to be active on campus and allows me to give back to the school/community through acts of service.
My individual strength is that I am constantly working to improve and contribute to my team. I love taking lessons, doing group workouts and scrimmaging. I pretty much live in the gym. I believe positive energy is essential and I try to be a constant source of encouragement to my teammates. I am a fierce competitor and never afraid to make a mistake as that is the only way you learn in life. I am dependable, honest and present.
I am so excited about my next stage of life. I aspire to continue to learn and contribute on and off the court. I want to be pushed to be the best human and volleyball player that I can be. I will do my very best in the classroom and on the court.
Thanks for considering me for your program. Please reach out with any questions.
