Belle Potter Serv...
Denver Crossroads...Personal Statement
My name is Isabella, most people call me Belle. I have played club volleyball since the 5th grade. I desire to play competitive volleyball in college. I am open to explore opportunities at all divisions. I am looking for a college where I will be able to make a big contributions early in my career. I desire to be a part of college athletic program that strives to give their best both on and off the court.
I read up on college players and strive to follow in their footsteps, while at the same time I am paving my own path for others to someday follow. I have been voted onto three All District Team 3 time including this year, my senior year. This year (2014) I received the sportsmanship award while competing at state. In the 2012 school season (my sophomore year) I also competed at state.
I believe that "Its not about how big you are, it's about how big you play."

My strengths are: digging, passing, reading angles, communicating and covering. My goals this season: Focus my attention to the smaller details of my position. I want to be one of the best libero's and that means focusing on the smaller details, the ones some other will overlook. So far during my 2014 school year I have a recorded dig count of 220. http://www.nwprepsnow.com/games/2014/nov/01/27974/

I was able to donate about 800.00 I'm excited that my hard work paid off and that 2 wounded warriors will enjoy a retreat away in montana at a wounded warrior fly fishing retreat because the money earned. This was my senior project and it was a huge success.
