Shya Prescott '21 Recruiting Profile

I have always been an outstanding person! I love being involved in school and getting to know and meet new people. I am very inclusive and open towards others. I look at friends, teammates, and peers as family and people who matter, because everyone does. I always try to take that next step into achieving something greater than great! Most importantly, I am a student before an athlete. I challenge myself with AP (Advance Placement) and honors classes. I like to be in as many clubs and sports I can possibly be in. I love being a leader and a role model! I feel it’s what I do best.

Here is a little  background on how my tennis story began!...I I have only been playing tennis for 2 years, now going on 3. When I first began my freshman year, I had never touched a racket or a tennis ball. I began to train, and picked up skills so quickly! I instantly developed an everlasting passion for tennis! I started the season ranked #7 on the team! The season went great and I had so much fun. Once the season was over I began to train daily, and play in tournaments for the rest of the year. When sophomore season rolled around, I was then ranked #1 on the team! I had worked so hard for that spot and to become a better tennis player. I accomplished so many things and reached so many goals throughout the season, I had to  work 10 times harder to prepare for junior year and I did! My coaches, friends, family, and most importantly, my teammates all contributed to the great success!
