To people on the court , um , not only is it sand , but you also don't get to be coached unless you're having like a side switch or a time out . But some great advice that I would give is just to go all out . Um , you never know what's possible until you do it .
Many games and so I think having that winning mentality and proving it to the coaches that I can do it and I'm fully capable of it really helped me earn that scholarship and I couldn't be happier . Some advice that I would give a high schooler going into college is that nothing set in stone with the transfer . portal being as big as it is now , you can always have the option to transfer if you're not happy .
Hi , my name is Ilana Embry and I am on the women's beach volleyball team for USC . The best advice that I've been given by a mentor is that there's life outside of volleyball , so make sure that you're working towards the person that you want to be when you graduate . When we condition in beach volleyball , I think that it's sometimes mental rather than physical .
um like I said before , they've won , I think , the most NCAA championships in the nation , and I just wanted to be a part of that and be coached by They're legendary coaches , um , all three of them are so great and welcoming , and I just want to be a part of the USC family for my last year . My final advice to a high schooler is that there's no perfect recruiting timeline . Everyone gets picked up at different times and just because , like , say you're a senior in high school and you still haven't got picked up , there's still opportunities for you .
So again , I took another leap of faith and I'm here for my 5th year . Some advice that I would give from transitioning to indoor to beach is that you have to go full out in your decision . It is , I would say , two completely different sports .
