Tamar Anderson '18 Recruiting Profile

Learning from your mistakes is one of the best lessons that volleyball has taught me. Knowing how to learn from them is what makes me work harder for greatness academically and athletically. My goal is to make that hard work count by taking my abilities to the next level.

I have a strong work ethic and enjoy the challenge of high-level play and training. I am coachable and competitive. I perform well under pressure and have quick reactions and reflexes. One of my strongest qualities is reading the offense, playing back row defense, being aggressive, adjusting position, and encouraging my team to victory. I strive to always have a good attitude and bring positive energy to the floor.

I am excited to move onto the next level of competitive volleyball and to further my education. Hopefully, my skills and qualities on and off the court can lead me to accomplishing my dreams of being a strong asset to my collegiate team.
