Mikaela Harrison ...Personal Statement
My desire is to play volleyball at the highest level while I am earning an education for a lifetime.
I would be an excellent candidate for any team for the following reasons:
1) I would be an excellent representative of the college/university, as I am a person who lives a life of integrity and serves my community and world;
2) I am an extremely hard worker who is never satisfied with my level of play - I will always work hard to improve;
3) I am a good student who will not require any concern from an academic standpoint (3.6 GPA in a highly academic high school);
4) I am a leader on and off the court who will make others around me better;
5) I handle pressure very well and thrive in the most challenging moments on the court;
6) I am a very coachable player who puts team first; and
7) I am a smart, knowledgeable player with intangibles and great "real-time" vision who can play any position on the court!
My desire is to EARN a college scholarship to play volleyball and ultimately teach this game to the next generation when I become a coach!
