Petra Trumbach '23 Recruiting Profile

     My aspirations in college are to study film production and finance while playing basketball. I am a hard-working individual who always seeks to improve in my academics, athletics and other passions. I enjoy expanding my creativity and learning about others. I am the type of person who doesn’t just focus on my strengths but strives to eliminate my weaknesses. As a former high-level competitive gymnast, conditioning, body awareness and daily hours in the gym are second nature to me. I will be the person who doesn't skim on conditioning, stays after practice to work on a skill and encourages my team to keep pushing on the hardest days. 

     Integrity is important to me. I strive to be the best person I can be on and off the court. I am a team player that believes your team is your family. I believe defense creates offense and that's my specialty. I am going to be involved all over the court, but I do not have to score the most points in a game. I enjoy making my teammates look good by delivering good passes and creating turnovers on defense. However, I do not hesitate to shoot the 3 or take the lane when the opportunity is there. 

     I often play shooting guard, but I have happily played other positions wherever I am needed at the time. My style is aggressive. I play with my physical strength, speed and strong court vision.
