The Showcase- Feb...Personal Statement
I am a passionate 17 year old athlete and Senior from Jackson, Wisconsin. I attend Kettle Moraine Lutheran High School where I grow as an athlete, student, classmate, leader, and Christian on a daily basis. This past high school season, we finished second in our regional final, losing to Catholic Memorial, the State Champions, 23-25 all three games. I was blessed to serve as a captain on this team and received all conference honorable mention. This club season I will be playing for coaches Margaret Vervelde and Paige Groth on Milwaukee Sting 18 Black. I believe my hard working attitude and strive for perfection will allow me to lead on the court this club season, as well as continuing to lead in school as Senior Class President. I am looking for a college with a strong volleyball program, as well as a strong Pre-Medical Undergraduate Program. I am very open to location and school sizes, as well as playing as a recruited walk-on for a high level volleyball program.
