Kaitlyn Cure of Kapaun Mt. Carmel has had nothing but love for volleyball, and as a senior, she’s hoping to hold on to every last minute. Cure was a first team all-league selection last year.
“I don’t know what I would do without volleyball,” Cure said. “It is the sport I go to when I’m stressed out and it has that level of comfort because I know when I walk into the gym I can let everything on my mind go and play the sport I’ve loved and still loved for many years.”
Cure not only has goals for herself, but is also ready to show what Kapaun is made of in the postseason, and hopefully come home with a big win.
“As for this season’s goals I want to get another Greater Wichita Athletic League title, win substate, and go win state,” Cure said. “That has been our motto for the season; everything we are doing is for state.”
After high school, Cure hopes to continue playing volleyball while also following in the footsteps of someone very important.
“As for college plans right now I am undecided,” Cure said. “I hope to play college volleyball and I’m still trying to find myself a home where everything feels right. I hope to find somewhere with an amazing nursing program because I would love to be a pediatric nurse or a labor and delivery nurse. I chose this path because of my grandma. She’s been my biggest inspiration and I want to honor her and be the first girl or my dad’s side of the family to continue in her nursing career.”
