Molly Boyd '22 Recruiting Profile

I am described as a dedicated, hard working, leader.  My dedication is reflected in the number of years I’ve played volleyball. I began playing in 2nd grade and have played every year since.  From a young age I got to tag along with my older sister and and got the unique opportunity to watch and learn from older players.   Early on I played basketball, cheered, played soccer and archery but I loved volleyball.  

    On the court, I am very hard working and constantly striving to make myself better and bring those skills to my team.  I have played year around for the past 3 years as a setter, outside, right and middle hitter.  I have played all 6 rotations for 3 years.  Year around volleyball requires me to play with different players and coaches.  It has taught me to be a team player and the value and benefits of working together.   Winning requires everyone being all in and I’m all in.   I also workout 3 days a week with a personal trainer to ensure I remain strong and in the best physical shape for those on my team who depend on me. 

     Volleyball is important to me and my horses are too. I have been riding and showing since I was 8.  I am a horse girl.  I have 4 horses that I ride 5 days per week and train them on my own. I am an advanced rider and also show other peoples horses. I have won 11 International Grand Championships. It is my love for horses that makes me want to be a Veterinarian. I plan to major in pre-veterinary studies in college. After college I plan to go to veterinary school and become a equine veterinarian.
