Personal Statement

Being voted Most Improved on the Freshman A team at Metea Valley High School was the highlight of my first season of high school volleyball.  Winning that award reflects the hard work and determination that I bring to a team.  The award helped fuel my desire of playing volleyball at the collegiate level.

Academically, I am currently taking Honors classes and carry a 3.61 GPA into the 2nd semester of my sophomore year.  Next year I will continue pushing myself academically with both Honors and AP classes. 

I believe I have the talent, competitiveness, and determination to compete at the collegiate level.  I'm looking for a program that will be a great fit for me both academically and athletically.
