How many years have you been playing volleyball?

7

What do you enjoy about volleyball? 

I enjoy that volleyball truly is a team sport. In volleyball you have to trust that everyone around you is going to give it their all. If they are, then it pushes you to do the same

What are your individual goals for this season? 

My goals for this season are to not only improve on skills such as my arm swing and digging hard driven balls, but to also work hard and really focus on my mindset when I make a mistake.

What are 3 team goals? 

My first goal for the team is that we all trust each other. Trust is important in volleyball because in a game you need to be able to know that your teammates next to you are going to get the job done.

My second goal for the team is to always want to work hard. We can’t improve and get better without putting the work in. We play how we practice.

And my final goal is that by the end of the season no matter how many wins or losses that we have, we can say it was a great season.

What are your strengths? 

My strengths are a powerful swing and having the drive to always want to get better.

What kind of coaching style do you respond to well? 

I really enjoy a coach that will push me. When I make a mistake I will likely always try and figure out what I did, but I always love feedback from the coach as well.

What are your plans after high school? 

I hope to play volleyball in college and potentially become a physical therapist.

Interesting fact about yourself? 

I’m at least 8 inches taller then both of my sisters

What club do you play for and for how long? 

MVA for 4 years
