About Naiya

How would you briefly describe your gameplay style?

🏐 I’m a high-energy Libero/DS with strong court awareness, fast reflexes, and elite-level setting ability from the back row—thanks to my background as a setter. I’m aggressive on defense, consistent in serve receive, and a vocal leader who brings intensity and focus to every point. 🎯💥

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

✨ I’m focused, disciplined, and coachable. I push myself in every practice and match. I believe in leading by example, staying positive, and playing every point like it’s the game-winner.

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

🏅 I’ve been accepted into the California Scholarship Federation and the National Honor Society, and I’ve earned a spot on the Honor Roll. 📚 I currently have a 3.8 GPA and will be taking a mix of advanced courses starting this fall at a rigorous, college-prep school, Oaks Christian.

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

💬 Being a former setter and now a libero, I’ve developed strong leadership and communication skills on the court. I’m also a team-first player who leads by example and brings a lot of energy to every match. 🙌 Outside of volleyball, I participated in community service through Core Prep Academy, which helped me grow in empathy, responsibility, and giving back. ❤️🤝

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

🏐 Switching positions from setter to libero was tough at first, but it taught me how to grow outside my comfort zone. I embraced the challenge, trained hard, and now use my setting background as a strength in my defensive role.

What type of college are you looking for?

🎓 High-academic college that values both excellence in the classroom and on the court. I’d love to be part of a competitive D1 volleyball program where I can continue to grow as a student-athlete, challenged academically, & surrounded by teammates and coaches who push each other to be their best. 🏐📚 I also value a strong campus community and a place where character and leadership matter. 💪🤍
