Anika Pedersen '26 Recruiting Profile

I am a strong leader on and off the court. I have goals for myself and I work hard to achieve them through additional workouts, strength training and agility training,  in addition to team based practices. I play multiple sports as I am aware that each sport benefits my overall performance as an athlete in a different way. I am a team player and consider everyone on my team to have a role in the success of the team. My freshman year, the first month of school I was nominated by the teachers for "lynx way leader" for positive attitude, respect, and responsibility. That same month, my peers voted me the opportunity to be a peer helper in my school. I try to have perspective with my sports. I love basketball and volleyball and it consumes a lot of my time, but I will always make time to keep my grades at an A and give back to my community and school by volunteering, fundraising and helping where needed.
