2020 HighlightsPersonal Statement
Hello, my name is Devon Elder. I currently live in Prosper, Texas and I am a senior at Walnut Grove High School. I am a hardworking volleyball player and always try to do things that will make me better. People have noticed how when I play, they see how much I enjoy it. I am very passionate about the game and will hope to continue to play through college. If I make a mistake on the court, I immediately learn from it and correct it before the next point. I started playing at the age of 5 and began playing club at age 8. I personally will have no preference, location-wise, as to what school I would like to attend, but am looking for a school that will be good for me both academically and athletically. For my future playing years, I want to continue learning and getting better, make sure I always give my best effort at 110% and make an impact on my coaches, teammates, family, and friends both in club and school. Off the court, I enjoy reading historical fiction books and watching different types of movies, mainly Harry Potter and Marvel.
