My name is Makayla Kuykendall, and I am a 5'9 sophomore outside hitter from Franklin, MA. I am known for bringing a lot of energy, positivity, and skill to the court. I value building strong relationships with my teammates and can get along with almost anyone. Currently attending Franklin High School, I maintain a GPA of 3.8 and actively participate in clubs like SADD, Taste Buds, and Empty Bowls. I am a dedicated volleyball player for Smash VBC and Franklin HS. I have been recognized as 1st team all-conference for my aggressive attacking and defensive skills in school ball play during my freshman and sophomore years. I am looking for a school where I can major in marketing or business and continue growing as a person and athlete.
