Nina Cano '19 Recruiting Profile

I am in my junior year as a homeschooler living in Greenville, PA.

I play for Greenville High School as a starter from the beginning of my high

school career and will continue to start as I enter into my junior year.

Basketball is my preferred sport and I am fully dedicated and committed to

getting to my full potential. I was in the starting rotation in volleyball both my

freshmen and sophomore year but have chosen not to continue this

particular sport during my junior and senior years so I can further my

knowledge and improve my skills in basketball. I would like to continue to

prepare myself for playing at the college level and I believe I have the skills

to do so.

As a basketball player, I was selected as first team all-region and I

was also among the region’s top scorer with 291 points in my sophomore

year.

As a volleyball player, I was D10 first team all-region during my

freshmen and sophomore year. I also held the position as the region’s lead

killer with 140 kills. At the beginning of my freshmen year I suffered from

patellar tendonitis of both knees, limiting my ability to play either sport.

Following my freshmen year of basketball, I went to rehab for 3 months.

I continued to weight train after completing my rehab to prepare myself for

the years ahead. I consider this the most challenging obstacle that I had to

overcome during my athletic journey. It taught me determination and

fortitude, which I believe are great attributes for being a successful leader.
