Is it just another pipe dream?
My entire life, I have been playing volleyball. I've been around the sport as much as physically possible. This year I will be a freshman in high school. I know it's pretty young to be thinking about it.. but the last several years I have been dreaming about playing on a BIG 10 volleyball team in college and lately I have been having a lot of doubts in my ability to accomplish this dream. My grades are good enough to be able to attend academically, but my physical ability is questionable. Do you think, knowing the following facts, that I could possibly be on a volleyball team at a division 1 school?
I think I'm just about done growing as far as my height goes. (I was x-rayed for shin splints and they told me the growth plates in my legs were just about all grown out) I was last measured at 5 feet 5 inches, weighing about 122 lbs. So, I'm pretty short. I'm not overweight at all luckily. Most of it is upper body strength..... I hope
I drink a lot of pop and i eat a TON. Unfortunately, I can't eat just ONE hot dog. If I eat any, it has to be 2... or more plus something else. My metabolism is strong enough that I don't gain a lot of it, but should I be eating so much? I don't know if that effects my playing at all...
I'm known for my speed, but will that benefit me much if I'm short? Does it balance out?
What are some things that I could do to increase the chances of this dream coming true? ..........
I'm sorry if I sound braggy... that's really not im intension.. I truely want to know if you think this is just another pipe dream... it might be kinda hard to tell considering you haven't seen me play at all.. but first impression.. what do you think?
