Vanessa Carmichael '25 Recruiting Profile

I've always been someone to step out of my comfort zone and never folded from tough hard coaching.  I've played flag football, soccer, and basketball throughout my life.  My freshman year I started a vegan cookie business with some friends and tried out the marching band for a season.  Soccer was my main sport but since 9th grade, I've made basketball my primary sport.  I love the competitiveness of basketball and one thing you will never hear from any of my coaches is needing to motivate me to hustle and give 100%.  I'm an athlete at heart but love to overcome adversity.  I started on varsity as a freshman and accepted the challenge to guard the opposing team's best player every game, regardless of position.  Every coach I've played for whether it be high school or AAU has always had a hardworking no attitude player.  If I'm having a tough day on offense you better believe I'm going to make it up on defense and rebounding.  I take my classwork very seriously and want to ensure that my degree actually means something.  Once my collegiate years are over I plan on pursuing a career in the FBI or some other government agency dealing with law enforcement and security.
