2015 May Highlights
January 2014Personal Statement
If you’re looking for a quick and dynamic middle, you should consider me! Every coach has told me my strengths are my speed and athleticism. My goal is to play at the highest level where I can be a strong contributor. My focus is on building strength and explosive jumps with an approach jump of at least 9’10”. I’ve recently started an Olympic weight lifting program that is pushing me hard and I am looking forward to seeing long term results.
I am also looking for a strong academic environment. As you can see from my GPA, I do a good job of balancing school and volleyball. I would love a school who wants me to succeed on and off the court!!
