About Kaitlyn

How would you briefly describe your gameplay style?

I have a calm and focused gameplay style. I observe, note tendencies, and relay that to my team.

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

I am analytical, observant, and strategic. I am looking for openings where my team can succeed. I observe my opponents but also my own team mates. I am always checking the temperature of my team and help support them in whatever way they need. Sometimes it's a high five, some times it's tactical advice, and other times it's a funny joke to help them relax.

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

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

I have learned to be efficient and focused with my time in order to attend all the training and fun that I want to be a part of. I am good at getting any project I am put in charge of started and finished. I have learned to be patient and to listen to people/animals to help me figure out how to proceed in any given situation.

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

The main challenge I experience is coaches who may underestimate me and my will to help my team win the game. I recognize that my personality is more introverted, but that does not mean I do not voice myself on the court. I have a more quiet confidence and consistency style that is not showy.

What type of college are you looking for?

I am looking for a program that offers pre-med courses with a support network to help me succeed on and off the court. I love the sport and want to play while doing the coursework needed for me to reach my end goal of Medical school.
