Yaquelin Lopez '17 Recruiting Profile

My name is Yaquelin Lopez, I'm recently a junior in Harmony Science Academy- Laredo. In middle school I played volleyball, but in my high school that I'm currently in right now, there are no sports. I've begged my mom to move me from that school but she wouldn't let me because she was more focused on my academics rather than the sports. So I decided to do my best on my grades. I'm currently taking a gym class at my school because we missed a credit for middle school, and I really get so exciting when we get to play volleyball because I mean, it's really my favorite sport. We sometimes have mini tournaments at our school, and the one we had this year, we got to the finals but we lost. Our name was Spirit Team. When I play, I like to dig, that's why I only like being in the back row. I also like spiking because it gets me more energized. When I serve, I do overhand but I can also do under. I practice everyday so that I can be good for college even though there is no volleyball team at my school. I am also currently in the process of finishing my 1st semester of dual credit classes in Texas A&M University. Plus, I'm also taking classes during summer. All in all, I am those type of person that gives my all even though we're about to lose. I practice everyday to succeed at my volleyball skills so that I can be able to get in a college team.
