Jhanae Sterling '25 Recruiting Profile

My goals and aspirations for volleyball is to hopefully play for the American volleyball team. I want to be able to inspire other people to follow any dreams they have about playing a sport. I hope to show others that as long as you work hard at the thing you love; you can always take it to the next level.

 Something that makes me different from other recruits is how dedicated and determined I am. I always ensure that I show up to practices on time and I only miss a practice when there is an emergency. I also try to practice outside of normal practice times to make sure I keep up with my skills. I am a strong team player who is dedicated to helping others so while on the team; I would help anyone who needs or asks for help. Working with other people and seeing how they play also helps me become a better player because I can still learn and grow from others.

I am also able to give volleyball my full attention while still maintaining a 4.0 or higher GPA. I am able to remain focus on both my academics and the sports I participate in.
