2019 HighlightsPersonal Statement
When I started playing Club volleyball in 7th grade, I realized that I wanted to continue playing in both high school and college. Each year since then, I have been playing with a more competitive team and playing in bigger venues. As a setter, I have developed strong leadership skills on the floor as I communicate the plays and motivate my teammates. Other strengths that I have include organizational skills, strong work ethic, and honest feedback. As I consider applications to college, I am looking for both a strong academic school and competitive volleyball program. Presently, my academic goals in high school are to finish with a 4.0 or higher GPA and to finish in the top 3 of my class. I am beginning to explore vocations within the mathematics and chemistry backgrounds and I desire to study both in college.
