Dalton Merka '15 Recruiting Profile

I have been playing tennis since the 8th grade. Once I put a racket in my hand I never wanted to let go. I have had to work harder than anyone since I have limited resources to becoming a better tennis player.

I work extremely hard in the classroom, always staying on top of grades, and making sure work is turned in on time. I also am in the school's drum line, and while it does take time away from studies, I still get my work done. 

I have a positive and hard working attitude in the classroom and on the court. I never settle for anything but my best. I practice every day and even built a backboard in my backyard to hit against. I've learned much of my game watching the pros on t.v and mimicking what they do on the court.
