Makayla Whalen '22 Recruiting Profile

 I am currently training in Parkland, Florida with Bobby Kokavec(305-773-1951). We train 4-5 hours a day plus strength and agility training. My family moved from Southern California to Parkland in August of 2019. I am currently ranked #33 in South Florida after having a top 20 ranking in Southern California.  Despite the limitations imposed by COVID, since moving to Florida, I have had many opportunities to train and play matches with top college prospects and players from around the country which has helped elevate my game to their level of play. I am extremely driven; it would be hard to find anyone more dedicated to improving  her game and pushing herself to the next level.  I consistently bring a top notch work ethic to every practice which inspires other players around me to raise their level of commitment as well. I believe I would be an excellent fit for your program.

I am homeschooled using Laurel Springs and have excellent grades along with the self discipline that comes with homeschooling.  I would like to major in Kinesiology as I have had minor injuries from time to time and know the heartbreak that comes from missing matches and doing rehabilitation exercises.
