Samantha Colucci '19 Recruiting Profile

Entering high school as a freshman, trying to make the decision of what sport to keep with was very challenging. I ended up choosing volleyball and I have never regretted it. Being a setter and playing volleyball has been an amazing experience which has taught me strategy, discipline and perseverance.

With only 6 players on the court at a time it pushed me to work hard and strive to be better in order to keep my place on the team and starting spot on the court. I appreciate that when I step into the gym my goal is to make myself and my team better and stronger. I am a well-rounded player and value the efforts of my teammates and the experience and knowledge of the coaches I have had the privilege to play with.

I am hoping to enter a physical therapy (DPT) program with a minor in Athletic Science. My goal is to work with athletes in the future and continue to work in a sports related field.

I am very excited to begin this new chapter of my life and I am looking for a college where I can grow both academically and personally while being able to play the sport I love; volleyball.
