2020 Highlights Personal Statement
My goals are to play volleyball after high school and attend a college or university with a quality volleyball and engineering program. I want to push myself to go as far as I absolutely can in this great sport. Many of my past and current coaches for volleyball, basketball, and archery have complimented me as being a natural athlete and a quick learner with excellent technique. My work ethic both on and off the court also separates me from other athletes my age.
I would be a great addition to your school and volleyball team. I'm a positive person, easy going that gets along with teammates and coaches. I have the mental toughness, intelligence, collaboration skills, and athleticism to be a quality middle, outside, or right-side hitter/blocker and I'm also skilled with serving, passing, and playing back row. My coaches love that I’m calm under pressure and they can place me anywhere on the court! I would be open to serving my future college team and coach in any position, as long as I'm on the court and playing the sport I love most.
