Personal Statement

What makes me stand out from everyone else out there is my work ethic - I started playing organized volleyball my freshman year and immediately fell in love. I couldn't play much over the summer, but I worked out a lot, got as many solo reps as possible, and made the best club team in the area - Smash 16-1 as a middle. Over time, I realized that I enjoyed playing pin more and believed I would be better suited at Pin, so during the following high school season, I started as a middle but stayed late after practices getting as many serve receive reps as possible. Midway through the season, my coach moved me to Outside and I helped bring my team to the State semi-finals as an 11th seed. I am also a student-athlete. I can balance my academics well even during the season when I sometimes don't get home until after 8 PM. I aim to play D1/high D3 volleyball at a school where I can also study Business or Engineering.
