2015 Pre-NationalPersonal Statement
Hello,
Throughout my years of playing sports, I have always strived to play at the highest level in regards to my commitment, my work habits and the level of competition. I have participated in varsity track and volleyball at my school since my freshman year. I achieved All-League, All-Conference and All-State Honors in volleyball in the 2014,2015 and 2016 seasons. I have quailified for the State track meet for the last two years and my 800M relay team broke the school record this season and finished 3rd at State. I am currently the libero on the Far Out 18 National Black team. I love sports and being part of the family a team becomes. I would like to pursue a career in sports management. My goal is to help other student athletes achieve their dreams.
I maintain a 3.5 grade point and above and I have been on the academic honor roll all year between my high school classes and the classes I am dual enrolled in at Glen Oaks Community College. I am Co-President of the National Honor Society at Mendon High School.
Please contact me if you have any questions at all.
Thank You,
Kaley Smith
