Emily Washkalavitch '22 Recruiting Profile

I have been an all around outside hitter and DS since my first year of volleyball 5 years ago. Throughout middle school and my first year of high school, I was honored to be team captain. In my sophomore year, I was put onto my varsity high school team as a starter, making me work as hard as I ever could to prove to my team, coach, and myself that I deserved my spot. On and off the court I strive to keep a positive attitude to my teammates and motivate everyone to do the same. I push myself and everyone else to work their hardest and to never give up, no matter the circumstances. Not only do I have high expectations in my volleyball career but also my academic career. I keep straight A's and work myself up to the next level to challenge myself. I wish to continue to push myself harder in my athletic and academic career throughout college. 

My dreams for college are to stay somewhat close to home but to find a comfortable place for me to continue my school and volleyball wishes.  I hope to study Nursing as I have been interested in this field for quite sometime. Lastly, I desire to play at the Division 1 or 2 level where I will be pushed to my full potential and one day coach after my college experience.
