“During my time playing for USA Michigan, I gained not only technical skills but skills that I will continue to use for a lifetime. The coaching style that Coach Buck enforces is unlike anything I had ever experienced but learned to appreciate greatly. The high standard that was set for us as athletes shaped me into a more disciplined player that benefited me in high school and followed me later into college. Having a strong background of rigorous training gave me an advantage over the other players when it came to high school and college volleyball. I was able to focus and implement the direction I was given in a timely manner that would allow me to see more time on the court.  I am forever thankful and will cherish my time playing at USA Michigan. I can honestly say, I wouldn’t have had the volleyball career that I did if it wasn’t for USA Michigan.”
