Personal Statement
My name is Madison, and I am a senior in high school. I have been playing volleyball for ten years. It has bee a real passion of mine, to not only play but to get better at what I do everyday. In the past two years, I tore my ACL, and when I was injured I felt as if it was ripped away from me. The severity of the incident took a larger toll on me than I expected. I dedicated myself to getting back to where I wanted to be, and even when I got there, I kept pushing myself to get better and never stop improving. This improvement was not just in volleyball but in academics and my character. I believe that this experience has propelled me to grow as a person all together in many different ways and took my love and passion for things in life to a new level. All of this has not changed my level of intensity and competitiveness that I exert everyday, not only on the court but all the time.
