Rory Corrales Rory Corrales 5'9" | RS Loma Linda Academy | 2030 CA is the only freshman to make the varsity team at Loma Linda Academy, and she calls that opportunity incredible, knowing how much she’ll learn just from watching and playing alongside older teammates every day. Her confidence and consistency are what she wants a coach to notice first, along with the calm she brings to her team in high-pressure situations, backed by a coachability she takes real pride in. A piece of advice, play your game even when you’re not 100 percent, reshaped how she handles an off night, teaching her that the best players don’t let a rough moment define how they compete. Corrales’s goal this season is to grow alongside her varsity teammates while contributing wherever her team needs her, and she’s picturing a college program down the road built on education, teamwork, and a positive culture. As a multi-team captain in her past, she leads by bringing people together and reminding teammates they can count on her, especially when the score isn’t in their favor. She wanted to be part of the Freshman Showcase to grow as a player, gain feedback from experienced coaches, and start building connections toward her goal of playing college volleyball.
