About Imani

How would you briefly describe your gameplay style?

Hey, I’m Imani! I love God, my family, my puppy, and VOLLEYBALL! I’m smart, strong, fast, and I’m used to fast game pace, scrappy, and have a powerful swing. I cover well and play good off block defense. I also block well. I like sets high, and just off the net to swing my best. I’m very excited about this club season, and hope to see you on the road!

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

My mentality is resilience. I have the ability to bounce back so, no matter how much we’re down in a game, I know how to fight.

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

I’m in AP classes and was just given awards for maintaining above a 3.5 GPA while completing school, club season and travel obligations for our Choir competitions. I was also given an award for our honors Choir. I’m also a member of Jack & Jill, an organization that dedicated to community service and education.

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

I am learning how to lead, because I’m not one who needs to be out front. I lead through serving others. I think it’s important that everyone know that they can lead, and contribute. I like to encourage and support whoever is on the court, whether it’s with my swing, or blocks, or the way I rally my team when we are fighting back. You can’t go wrong with being a great teammate.

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

Three years ago I was diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes. I have had to learn to overcome and pay attention to my body like never before. I’ve learned so much in the last 3 years, but the most important is that I can overcome anything. My family and my faith in God have shown me that. I believe I am stronger and more resilient because of it.

What type of college are you looking for?

D-1, medium size school with Psychology major, theology minor. I’d like a school that loves its athletic teams and has a place for the arts as well. I’d also love to play for a coach who wants to build a culture…. Oh and a school with good gluten/dairy free food options!

This is going to sound weird, saying that she gets a little overshadowed by her little sister, but when your little sister is one of the top hitters in her grad year for the whole region, it can happen. Imani is no slouch in her own right, though, so let her have her flowers. She’s got a little less pure power than her sister does, but about the same height and vertical, and she picks and chooses her spots better. I actually really like a hitter that can read and place a ball vs playing whack-a-mole. I have told some extremely talented teams in warm ups if they really want to impress me, show me location and control vs power. Anyone can hit hard, but it takes some real skill to locate around a defense vs through it. This is something Imani does really well, and because of that, there should be a place for her in college if that’s what she wants to do. People underestimate intelligence in sports sometimes; I do not, and she has it. College coaches, feel free to examine the video: https://www.hudl.com/profile/25474546/Imani-Thomas/about?utm_source=ig&utm_medium=social&utm_content=link_in_bio&fbclid=PAZXh0bgNhZW0CMTEAc3J0YwZhcHBfaWQMMjU2MjgxMDQwNTU4AAGnErlVxnA4CTSAFVSNZyfGo9vbvuOtmH8kM2pYjht-YFtdMr6t0duov6r-h3k_aem_MVunJSQZaUEDyAaK2jw3Pw
