Zoe Staats '18 Recruiting Profile

I have many goals in life and one of them is to play college volleyball. I am considered a powerful lefty with great leaping ability. I can also be noticed as a game-changer who can play right side, middle, or outside in the front row. I am aggressive and I will swing at anything I can to earn the point. I also use tipping as one of my tools when the set isn't so good. With blocking, I get high over the net and penetrate. I work hard on the court and also in the classroom. This year, my goal is to get on the honor roll all four quarters.  So far, I have made the honor roll in the first quarter. I hope when I go to college, I get the best education and the best volleyball while I'm there. I always try to keep a positive attitude everywhere I go, not only to help my volleyball team, but to carry me through life's hard times, such as when my mother got diagnosed with a brain tumor. Luckily, she survived and is still here today to love and support me. I appreciate everything my parents, coaches, friends and family for always being there for me and encouraging me to go after my dreams. If any college comes to watch me play, I hope they notice not only my skill, but my passion for the game.
