Tricia Nystrom<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Our Female Athlete of the Day, Tricia Nystrom<\/a><\/strong>, is the quintessential NSR student-athlete who stars on the volleyball court and in the classroom.\u00a0 She carries an impressive 3.53 GPA at Aloha High School in Aloha, Oregon.\u00a0\u00a0She plans to\u00a0major in Anthropology.\u00a0 Her high school coach, Kelly Scholl,\u00a0says it all when she describes this exceptional young woman, “I have loved coaching her! She works hard 100% day in\/day out. Tricia is versatile and has learned to play different positions quickly. She has a nice reach on the ball and is a good attacker. Her block touch is limited, but she performs well as a hitter and even as a back row player, has a great feel for the ball and will be able to play all around for the high school team this year.\u00a0 As a very hardworking, versatile 6’1″ player that is also a great student, she will be a great team player for\u00a0a college\u00a0program.”\u00a0 Her NSR scout and former college coach, Craig Stanger<\/strong>, says, “Tricia is a very dedicated hard worker and demonstrates strong competitive drive. A terrific athlete, she previously played soccer and softball, before finding a love for volleyball as she entered high school.\u00a0 Although relatively new to the game, she is very coachable and capable of applying new techniques and has become a key player for her high school team in a short time.\u00a0 Tricia is multi-sport athlete (track) that is just scratching the surface and has a tremendous upside.\u00a0 With her determination,\u00a0 excellent study habits and good gpa (3.5),\u00a0 Tricia will be able to compete well at the collegiate level.”\u00a0 Her essay to college coaches\u00a0offers a window into how Tricia thinks and her goals when she says, “I can’t imagine myself not playing volleyball in college. I’ve grown as an athlete and as an individual while playing volleyball and I plan on continuing to grow as a person! I absolutely love the game and I spend most of my time either at practice, tournaments, or working out. During this season, I also started meeting with a personal trainer to work on my speed and agility. When I’m not focused on volleyball, I’m either doing school work, or at track practice. I run hurdles for Aloha and it’s helped me become a more-rounded athlete. I really believe that attitude is everything, so I’m constantly trying to bring my teammates up and make energy around me better! You will not regret having me on your team, and I’ll prove it.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
