Shelby Tankersley '15 Recruiting Profile

My collegiate goal is to major in Business with a minor of some sort in sport management to one day open my own volleyball club. In regards to the contributions that I would bring to the table for a college program, I feel that I am a born leader. Since I have been involved in the sport of volleyball, I have been elected as a captain, or co-captain, for all the teams I have been involved with. I take it upon myself to encourage, and influence, the level of play and determination of my teammates. Also, I have worked on a consistent basis to become a better player. This is a process that I take on through my work ethic in the gym, practice court, watching film, and through my performance in the classroom. Through this approach, I believe I distinguish myself from other potential recruits. I will never be out-worked, nor will I settle for average results for myself, or my team.
