Personal Statement

My aspirations in life are to go to college, play volleyball, and major in a subject I have a passion for. Ever since I was a little girl on the court, playing volleyball in college was something I always dreamed about. I work for the team, and not for myself. Every pass I get, every dig, I wonder how is that for the setter? Can the setter produce a good set off of my pass for the hitter? I am willing to go farther than anyone else and push myself to the limit each rep of every drill of every practice. Every day, I always look for feedback and advice on how I can fix my performance. I go into the gym, and I step onto the court with an attitude of grit, determination, and courage. I put everything I have out there for every point, every set, and every game. I am a good teammate. I watch out for my teammates, and I make sure they are okay. I encourage them to keep going and put 100% out there on the court. I lift them up when they can't lift themselves. I play for the team, and I lead. I play for the victory. I crave the win, but I also value the lessons that can be found in the tough losses when they occur.
