2015 HighlightsPersonal Statement
As a starting Freshman and Captain at Coffeyville Community College, I was baptized by fire and quickly responded to my leadership role on and off the court. I have a strong volleyball IQ to make smart, quick decisions on the court, and playing multiple positions in high school helped shape me as a Setter.
We were the KJCCC District and Region Champions. We also defeated the two-time defending national champions (Parkland) and beat a 39-0 team (Owen) to be crowned the 2017 NJCAA Division II National Champions!! I averaged 10.7 Assists per Set and ended the 2017 season ranked #3 in the Nation!!
I earned 3.86 my first semester of college and a place on the President’s Honor Roll. I earned a 3.90 GPA in high school, took Honors and AP courses, scored a 20ACT, and was ranked 14/387 (top 5%) in my high senior class.
