I am a student at Beaver Area School District and I participate in Volleyball and Softball and have lettered in them both years that I have played. I made All-Section in volleyball both years that I played so far (freshman and Sophmore) and hit two homeruns in Softball my freshman year. I am able to run a 40-yard dash in 5.9 seconds and have a vertical of 25 inches. I consistently led my high school teams in kills, blocks, and aces during my sophomore year. I was awarded most valuable middle blocker at the Moon Invitational. I have recieved three President’s Education Awards Program of Outstading Academic Excelence and was named student of the month twice, which is decided by teachers and staff.
