Laci Gratkowski '21 Recruiting Profile

I would like to play volleyball in college to bring myself to my fullest potential on the court along with my teammates as well as off the court in the classroom.  Having a positive attitude, teamwork and work ethic to become the best that we can be is important to me.  I have high aspirations of becoming a great leader and helper in the community with my life long goal of becoming a veterinarian.  

I play very well with others and am a team player encouraging others and enjoy our accomplishments knowing that it takes a team with a great coach and us executing what we are told to progress ourselves further.  I would like to be a part in bringing the team to another level and us all striving to become the best that we can be and enjoying in that it takes all of us to make a team successful.

Once again, I am all about teamwork and being a part of a successful team and never do I feel as though I stand out above anyone else.  It is all of us putting in the hard work, encouraging each other, helping and guiding each other to the most successful that we can be.  I want to become better and better never settling for less than the best.  Regarding academics, I have a passion for becoming a veterinarian where once again I am helping within a team to bring success and overcome animals illness while I struggle with a type of dyslexia.  It has always been my goal to become a vet even though I just found out recently that I have a type of dyslexia.  I will overcome this and live my dream!
