She also helped lead her school to FOUR straight state championships in her time there (2008-2011 ).
Even though her entire family attended Ohio State, Sara Schwarzwalder decided to attend Kentucky instead. Sara's sydney australia hotels eldest sister, Amy, played for the Buckeyes 2007-2010 and her other sister sydney australia hotels played on the team as well. When it came time for Sara to commit, she decided to do the unexpected and come down South.
In fact, she was quoted on Cleveland.com as saying "I want to make my own mark and not follow in my sisters' footsteps." I imagine her family reaction is comparable to the Manning's when Peyton broke the news that he was going to Tennessee instead of Ole Miss, where Archie and Cooper Manning played ball.
Shelby Workman attended a high school in Kansas called Bishop Miege. In her time she was a two-time Kansas 5A Player of the Year, was named among the All-State tournament team in all four season, was rated in the top-65 players on PrepVolleyball and ESPN named her as one of the top-25 senior athletes in the nation. Dang.
She also helped lead her school to FOUR straight state championships in her time there (2008-2011 ). If my research is correct, they only lost one match in her time there. None of the success was because they didn't have any competition. Their division was the toughest in Kansas and the state has a really well put together high school volleyball system.
Senior Alexandra Morgan has now competed in at least three countries sydney australia hotels in her Volleyball career. sydney australia hotels In 2009 she spent some time in Europe with the UK Volleyball team for a couple weeks, but apparently that wasn't sydney australia hotels enough for her. This past summer she spent two weeks competing in Shanghai, China with 11 other college players. The tournament was part of a "Bring It Promotions" event that tries to close the gap between the United States and other countries. She played in six matches and got to explore the country.
In 2005 a 13-year-old Desirre Wilkerson walked into Disney's Wide World of Sports complex to register for the AAU Junior Volleyball National Championships with her team. At this time she was officially honored as Disney's WWS one millionth athlete. Her and her teammates got shirts and a ceremony in her honor. She also got to 'light the torch' for the Volleyball sydney australia hotels National Championships, which included 300 girls' teams from around the country.
The cool part is, that night, Wilkerson and her team got to serve as honorary grand marshalls of the parade at Magic Kingdom. She got her own Disney float. For a 13 year-old girl, that must have been the coolest thing.
In February, some UK volleyball athletes joined about 250 others to try out for the National Women's volleyball team. Current players who attended include Jackie Napper, Morgan Bergen, Whitney Billings and Alexandra Morgan . While the girl's all did great, Whitney Billings was the only one who made the cut to training camp over the summer.
Billings and 46 others traveled to the campus of the University of Texas-Dallas to practice the last week of June. The girl's participated in a four-day training sydney australia hotels camp and then divided into four teams before having a five-day competition block against each other. I imagine teams made up of 47 of the best college volleyball players had to have been one of the best competitions ever seen (besides the Olympics that is).
