Allison Winston '16 Recruiting Profile

     My goals for playing volleyball on a collegiate level is to be part of a team that strives to be the best.  I love the bonding, friendship and competition that comes with being part of a team.  During college, I plan on studying music education and becoming a music teacher.  In addition, I wouldn't mind teaching kids how to play volleyball.  

     I would be a good candidate for the team because I care about motivating others and playing hard.  My school volleyball team achieved the best season in our school's history this past fall.   I was selected as the MVP of the Metro Independent School Athletic League and was a member of their first team for the past two years.  

     Not only do I care about my school work, but I am finishing high school a year earlier than my peers.  I also have been playing piano, since I was 4 years old and know how valuable practice time is both on the piano and on the volleyball court.  In addition, I am always willing to sing the national anthem before any game.  Prior to becoming dedicated to volleyball, I took dance lessons for eight years that kept me diligent, coordinated and light on my toes.   I have been playing school and club volleyball for only four years, and I am always willing to learn and willing work hard to achieve and better my skills.
