Carissa Carbone '17 Recruiting Profile

Hi my name is Carissa Carbone, and I am graduating in the class of 2017.  My goal of playing collegiate volleyball began in my first year of ever joining a club team, 5th grade.  I have always worked hard to be the best player that I can be on and off the court.  Volleyball has not only affected my athleticism,  but my work ethic.  Student athletes are held to a higher standard, and I work to raise that standard with the academic courses I take, and the grades I get.  I have been on the honor role since my freshman year.  Among my academic and athletic responsibilities, I also participate in the unified sports program.  Which places students with mental and physical disabilities with selected students to team up and play various sports.  Everything that I do in high school now, is preparing me for my ultimate goal.  Play competitive volleyball at a collegiate level, and get a great education while doing so.
