Blythe Benefield '21 Recruiting Profile

I have been involved in sports since I was 3. I have always felt more comfortable on a court or a field than anywhere else. When I am playing basketball I truly feel alive. I decided at an early age that I wanted to play basketball on the collegiate level and my parents and have always supported that dream. I would love to find a college where I feel at home. Where I can continue to feel alive while on the court.  I am left hand dominant but I am also very strong with my right hand. I have played point but can also post up and rebound in the paint. I am not a stranger to working hard. I have been moved up the varsity team as a freshman and in my area that does not happen very often. Freshman are still considered Jr. High. I feel like my hard work and dedication has helped my first dream of moving up come to life. 

When I am not playing basketball I also enjoy soccer and track. I work hard in the classroom and right now I am maintaining a 4.0 GPA. I work with our younger players on and off the court. I am very quiet when not on the court. I look forward to working hard for any coach. I am very coachable and enjoy proving to others that I belong.
