Abigail Dame '20 Recruiting Profile

I enjoy life.  I enjoy studying and have achieved a very high ranking in a large class of peers.  I have successfully completed a college course AP exam and expect to do so again this Spring.  I take advanced academic courses.  In fact, I am performing better this year than last.  Further, I enjoy music and developed very good vocal skills.  All of the previous activities balance well with my enjoyment of tennis.  I enjoy being outdoors, even in 40 m.p.h. wind that West Texas brings.  I enjoy working with my teammates, the coaches, and playing against the competition.  I do not like the cheating that is rampant among certain schools in the district and supported by the coaches.  Our school does not tolerate such behavior for which I am appreciative.  Unlike many who begin with a racket in their hand at age six, I began as a seventh grader.  Thankfully, I was trained by a coach who year after year won the all-region championships while I was in middle school.  So, I have made very good progress and remain high on the ladder on the J.V. team.

I want to go to a college that will challenge me academically and offer a chance to play tennis.
