I am Kara Whalen, class of 2026, I started volleyball in 8th grade and quickly fell in love with the sport. I believe volleyball is a hardworking and rewarding sport. My improvement over the past year and a half is something I take pride in and is what pushes me to becoming my best self on the court. I am now playing for Princeton Volleyball Club as I am on a national team and just recently made the Stars and Stripes summer beach volleyball team. I look forward to seeing my improvement over the next few years and seeing where my volleyball journey leads me.
