Valeria Lagos '24 Recruiting Profile

Volleyball became my passion over the years. I have been playing Volleyball since I was 11 years old. And my goal was to make something more out of it. I'm looking forward to playing it in college because this is what I love and enjoy the most. Over the years, I discovered that I need volleyball in my life, and I know all these years of dedication will help me get the chance to play in college. 

I'm an Outside hitter. And I can say for sure that my best qualities are my spikes and also my blocking skills., my reception is not the best, but I also work hard on it in order to improve it. I always do jump serves, and I'm not a big fan of dinking or tiping the ball, but I know that sometimes is necessary in order to win. I'm a very coachable player, and I always listen to my coach.

As a player in a team sport, communication within the team is important for me. I'm part of my country's national team, and I did work hard to get there. As a recruit, I plan to give all I have in order to achieve my central goal. And keep training hard, always. 

I study to achieve excellent marks and a high GPA. Every day, I work on time management because my only rule is to excel in my studies and athletics. I also volunteer and work with children whose parents have limited resources,  we have a fantastic time together. 

My current goal is to push myself to get into a college that will allow me to demonstrate to those around me what I'm capable of. I want to do what I love and go wherever I want with it. In addition, I intend to pursue my ideal career.
