Sarah Hendrickson of Campus knows being a student athlete is never easy, but at Campus, Hendrickson knows that the positive and lifting atmosphere is what makes it all happen.
“I would recommend my high school to other student athletes because I believe my school has some good coaches, they not only want to see us successful on the court or field, but in the classroom and life too,” Hendrickson said.
While not in-season, Hendrickson’s preparation went all the way back to last summer, as she started to perfect herself and her skill on the court.
“To prepare for the season I went to all the open gyms and the practices that were held by my coach in the summer, and I also went to weights and conditioning all summer,” Hendrickson said. “Over the summer I was trying to improve on my post skills and also my three point shots.”
Preparing to come out big for the winter season, Hendrickson also set a goal to see herself shine off the court for her team as well.
“A goal that I am focused on this season is to become a stronger leader for my teammates on and off the court,” Hendrickson said.
With her new found leadership, Hendrickson is looking forward to celebrating big steps and new beginnings with the Lady Colts.
“I am most excited for continuing to build relationships with my teammates and celebrating with them when we have small and large victories,” Hendrickson said.
Hendrickson plans to continue her academic and athletic career in Manhattan after graduation.
