Jordan Melis '20 Recruiting Profile

    I hope to one day be a graphic designer. My goals for higher education are to do my best and work hard. Often times I have a hard time asking for help, so I hope to become better at doing that, and for example, making good use of office hours. I hope to form good bonds with both my professors and coaches, as well as my fellow students.

    I believe that I am a good candidate for your team because I am a hard worker, and I believe in myself and my teammates. I am very encouraging on the court, and I don't get super down on myself or others. I am a very versatile player; I have played and competed as every position on the court at one point or another. The past few seasons I have been playing as a setter with my high school team, and a hitter with my travel team, mostly right side but some outside as well. I am a good blocker, and because of my height, as a setter, I can go up to block outside attacks and I consistently am one of the players on my team who gets the most blocks. I have been playing for a while now, so I  understand the game well and I am good at knowing exactly where I need to be on the court at all times.

    I went to AAU Nationals in Orlando the summer of 2018 and was a captain there, I received second team all-conference for my 2018-19 high school season, as well as MVP both my Junior (2018-19) and Sophomore (2017-18) years.
