Expert Analysis
Michelle Bamford | Prep Dig Scout
💡 How would you describe your role on the court, and what do you do to elevate the players around you?
I’m very energetic and love hyping people up when they make a good play. I’m also supportive and like to joke around with my teammates to help them relax and have fun on the court.
🧠 In high-pressure moments, what’s your mindset and how do you stay composed?
My mindset is to do the best I can and focus on what I can control. I try to keep myself and my team in a good mood, no matter what’s going on.
💪🏽 What’s something specific you’ve been working to add to your game this season, and why?
I’ve been working on hitting the ball harder and getting up on blocks more consistently. I’m a scrappy player, and sometimes I rely more on being scrappy than aggressive. I’m learning to push harder and challenge myself to get up, even when it feels tough.
🌟 Off the court, how would your coaches and teammates describe you, and what personal qualities do you bring to a team culture?
They’d say I’m silly and funny, but also serious when I need to lock in. I bring loud, positive energy from the sidelines and have a lot of perseverance when things get hard.
💥 What’s a fun fact about you that you’d want college coaches to know?
I’ve only been playing volleyball for about two years and have played just two club seasons.
