Josey Freel '25 Recruiting Profile

I'm very passionate about volleyball and would love to pursue it at a high level, while attending a school with rigorous academics. I believe I'm a good fit for the middle hitter/right side hitter position because I enjoy the challenges that come with it. Specifically, I'm fascinated by the mental aspect of quick decision making that is unique to the position. As a natural leader I take on many responsibilities such as community service projects for my 4H club along with being active secretary for the club.   I am very supportive of others and like to help in any way I can. That being said, I'm a driven and hardworking individual who will always give 100% and I expect the same commitment from my teammates. I am flexible and willing to learn new positions as I have played setter in school but have learned how to play middle blocker and opposite hitter in club volleyball.  Within club, I have improved so much since the beginning of this year, and I can't wait to see the level I will be playing at the end of high school!

I'm just as passionate about academics as I am about volleyball. My interest in athletic training and physical thearpy draws me to a lot of possibilities. Problem solving and teamwork are facets common to a science field which could explain my attraction to them.
