Josiah Johnson '24 Recruiting Profile

As a dedicated and driven athlete, I am excited to share my journey in volleyball and express my aspirations to contribute to a collegiate volleyball program. I believe my unique blend of qualities both on and off the court make me an ideal candidate.

One of my defining attributes as a volleyball player is my coachability. I have always been eager to learn and improve, taking every opportunity to absorb knowledge from my coaches and peers. My willingness to adapt to new strategies and techniques, combined with my work ethic, has allowed me to continually progress as a player. I believe that being coachable is not just about listening but also about implementing feedback effectively, and I take pride in my ability to do so.

Though I started my volleyball journey later than some of my peers, my height, standing at 6'6, has provided a unique advantage and contributed to my rapid progress in the sport. I have embraced the challenge and am determined to make the most of the time I have spent on the court. My dedication to the sport, coupled with my innate physical attributes, has fueled my desire to excel as a volleyball player.

In addition to my commitment to volleyball, I understand the importance of academics. My 3.97 GPA reflects my dedication to balancing sports with my studies. I recognize that academic success is an integral part of my overall development, and I am committed to maintaining high standards in the classroom. Furthermore, I view academics as an opportunity to build important life skills, including time management and discipline, which I can apply to my volleyball training and performance.
