Emily Ellenburg '21 Recruiting Profile

I want to play college volleyball because being on the court is the place where I feel the most at home.  Volleyball is my passion. Playing at the college level is something I have wanted to do since I was about 8 years old.

I think that when people watch me play,  they can see a few things.  First, they can tell that when I play, I really enjoy what I am doing.  I think that an important part of the game is the fact that you should love everything about the game, and I do.  Next, they can see that I take the game seriously.  Not only should you love it, but you should be improving every time you go on the court.  Everything that happens is a learning opportunity.

I would love to be a part of a program where the coach can see my potential as a player, a teammate and a student athlete, and can help me to become the best of all three.  I want to leave college knowing that I have done everything I could do to be successful in the real world.
