Emily Ward '18 Recruiting Profile

I started playing volleyball in 6th grade. My dad encouraged me to play when I first started middle school, and now it is what I am passionate about. My collegiate goal is to be the most disciplined player on the court. I love this game because of the energy, the mental challenge, and I admire team sports. I show natural leadership on the court which is easy for me to connect with teammates and have great chemistry. I'm an extremely hard worker in many aspects of life, with school work, helping others, and in volleyball. I am an athlete that will work until I can not do anymore, that is why I think I may be a good candidate for your team. The reason why I want to pursue playing in college is because the passion I have for the game. I want to play at the next level. Playing volleyball in college has been a dream of mine ever since I started playing, I want to be someone who stands out to people on and off the court.
