Personal Statement
My name is Baleigh Stephens, class of 2020, Right Side hitter/Outside hitter.I pride myself on being a coachable,passionate, competitive, strong, and supportive teammate. Each year I grow to love and respect this sport and the teamwork involved each time I play. Playing volleyball through the years, I have learned new levels of discipline and have applied them to my personal life.
I knew I wanted to play at the next level my 13s club season. The type of community and teamwork in the sport is something I’ve always wanted to be apart of and this became very important to me. I always strive to push myself and my teammates. Over the past 2 years I’ve learned that accountability is very important. A goal I’ve set for myself is to always hold myself accountable both on and off the court. And I love when my teammates hold me accountable. I strive to connect with people who have the same mindset as I do. And I like the challenge of connecting with players that have different mindsets as well.
My academic goals for high school is to graduate with a 3.5 gpa or above. My academic goals for college is to complete my undergraduate degree and following that further my studies in Liberal Arts/ Education and majoring in this field of studies.
