As many of you know, I am looking to play volleyball at the college level, I recently had my first official recruiting call with a coach, which was an amazing experience!

I am not going to say who it was for now but it is one of my top 3 school choices. So that made it more exciting.

It was funny how it happened because the coach texted me and asked me last week why I hadn’t responded to his email, and I was caught by surprise because I never saw the email. He said it was ok; he just wanted to speak with me about their school.

So I started preparing for my call and spoke with my high school coach and club director; my recruiting director sent me some prep information.
I was ready.

It was 4 pm yesterday, right after High School practice, and now here I am talking to the coach about what they look for in potential recruits, I learned so much about myself and what college coaches want from their student-athletes.

I realized how much this school values academics. One of the first few things the coach asked me for my GPA, and if I was taking or on track to taking physics and Calculus.

The best part is that he wants to talk with both my parents and me in a couple of weeks, it’s time to get ready and take this journey further!
