Co-Captain
RMHS Volleyball
01.2018 - 01.2021
- I played volleyball for all 4 years of my high school experience on the varsity team.
- During the last two years, I was the co-captain of the team along with two other girls.
- In 2020, the COVID-19 pandemic prevented us from having a season. As captain, I would lead the warm-up exercises. We were limited in our ability to play games because of the difference in location, but we still overcame this obstacle.
- In 2021, my senior year, as regulations started to lighten, we were allowed back in the gym with a continuation of mandated masks. As captain, I was in charge of the warm-up exercises, setting up the court, and teaching others (primarily the incoming freshmen) how to set up the court as well as leading the team during games in pre-season and season.
