Hey coaches I'm Noah Ortiz. I am 14 years old and im in freshman year. Ive played volleyball for 2 years. i started practicing on my own in 7th grade since there wasn't any clubs or teams I could join. in 8th grade I joined my school team and I was a starter for opposite hitter, middle, right back/setter. I was chosen to be in a ALL STAR for Manhattan youth and I was right side hitter. i was introduced to volleyball at 10. I enjoyed watching people jump so high and hit the ball with crazy amount of force. I liked watching how they work as a team and how they are so coordinated and seems like they could read each others mind. Thats why I love volleyball, the teamwork. I am 5'6 and i weigh 122. My goal is to be D1 in college and increase my vert. I am very hard worker. I train plyometrics every Monday and Friday. I go to the gym every weekday. Im as good in the class as I am in the court. I have a 3.5 GPA out of 4.
