Mikaylah Thompson '20 Recruiting Profile

My name is Mikaylah Mary Ingrid Thompson.  I was born in Tahlequah OK and my mom and I moved to WA when I was almost 9 months old.  My mom was a collegiate athlete, playing both basketball and softball, and continues to play softball competitively today.  She pushes me to be the best person and athlete I can be.  We are very close.  I have a laid back life but we are often busy with traveling to sporting events, both to watch and to play.  I have been playing volleyball competitively since the 7th grade and I LOVE this sport!  I love to be challenged to be better than the person across the net from me.  I love to support my teammates and appreciate that they support me too!  I would love to use volleyball as a vehicle to help pay for college and earn a degree.  I am not positive at this point in my life what I want to major in yet.  It will come to me, I'm sure! 

In my Junior season I was selected as a WIAA Athlete of The Week for week 2.  This was such an honor to receive!  I have just received an email invitation to play volleyball in July 2020 with America's Team in Australia! This is a very exciting opportunity!

Thank you for viewing my profile.  I look forward to being able talk to the coaches who are interested in recruiting me for their volleyball team!
