Alyssa Terry, Student-Athlete of the Week


High-school sports:
.Swimming (freestyler and relay-team member, state-qualifer) and volleyball (middle blocker and hitter).

What I’ve done lately:
Helped a couple of relay teams compete at the Class 4A Colorado meet.

Grade-point average:
3.7.

Class:
Senior.

Why I attend Mullen: .The shadowing really pulled me in as an eighth-grader. I’ve felt like that ever since.

The best things about my sport:
I love both equally, but if I have to choose, it’s volleyball. It’s a more-competitive sport for me. Swimming is more of a fun thing.

In my future:
I want to play a college sport. I have colleges interested in me for rowing and another for volleyball. I’ll take official visits and will major in kinesiology.

Pre-Game ritual:
I don’t think I’m superstitious. I just go and compete.

Favorite college team:
I follow the California schools I’m looking at and my mom went to Missouri and we follow its football.

Why I play:
I play for the friends I’ve made through sports and I just love competing and pushing myself as far as I can go, and getting the results after I push myself.
