About Gioia

How would you briefly describe your gameplay style?

Hello, thank you for viewing my profile page. For the past 4 seasons, I played the MB position for Legacy Volleyball Club in Valencia, CA. In July 2025 I moved clubs and joing SG Elite's 16 Roshambo team for the 25-26 season. I am an aggressive hitter and stronger blocker, I can reach almost 10ft.

Can you provide a brief description of your mentality or personality?

I am very good at turning on and off my aggressiveness. Once the whistle blows I am pretty much focused on the game and what it takes to win. After the game and between sets I like to joke around and make people laugh to help deal with the pressure and stress of the matches. I am an August birthday so I am usually the youngest on the team and am accustomed to playing against older players.

Are you involved in any clubs, organizations, or have you received any non-sport awards?

Currently only a freshman but belong to CSF (California Scholatic Federation) and I will be eligible for National Honor Society next semester. I am member of DFY (Drug Free Youth) and Black Student Union at my high school.

What skills or qualities have you developed, such as leadership, teamwork, or community service?

I volunteer monthly at a food bank and in the last 8 months started working with my old club coach that left and started her own club, I work with her to coach kids in the 8-10 yr old age group. It's helped me find my voice and learn how to communicate better with my students and eventually my teammates.

Have you faced any significant challenges? If so, please describe.

I lost my mother to cancer when I was 5 years old, and have been raised by my father. I also have an older brother that plays football at home. So I am constantly in a house with male energy and have had to learn to fight for everything, I think this has played a part in my athleticism and my aggressiveness. I don't back down from difficult situations and have learned a lot about myself.

What type of college are you looking for?

Not sure yet, open to it, but probably a mid size to smaller school right now. But I am only a freshman and have time to figure this out still. But I do want something that provides me a challenge academically and the opportunity to play at a high level of volleyball

Gioia Piccolino Gioia Piccolino Gioia Piccolino 5'10" | MB/OH West Ranch | 2028 State CA brings visible energy that elevates team momentum. Her enthusiasm is not isolated to celebrations, it reinforces engagement and collective focus across rotations.

Technically, she is investing time in closing to the pin and tightening her blocking range, showing measurable improvement in footwork and seal discipline. That commitment to lateral development expands her defensive value in transition.

She emphasizes the preparation that happens before competition, noting that much of her dedication is not captured on film. For evaluators, that acknowledgement of unseen work matters.
