I am Mya McCubbin, a junior at Nixa High School and play with club 417 Juniors.

This past year pushed me a lot. I stepped into different roles, including playing middle for my high school team and focusing more on back row in club. That helped me become more reliable in serve receive and defense, and more comfortable adjusting depending on what my team needs.

I'm naturally steady on the court. I communicate, stay engaged, and focus on the next play. When I make a mistake, I reset fast and keep my energy consistent so my teammates can rely on me.

I've grown into more of a leadership role by being someone my team can count on. I am not the loudest voice, but I ring a calm presence when things get tense.

One of my biggest areas of growth for me has been confidence. I have build trust in my game through repetition, especially in blocking and back row defense.

I enjoy competing and improving. I track my progress and focus on getting better in specific areas like serve receive, defensive reads,, and court awareness.

Academically, I am interested in pre-med path with focus on and healthcare. I am looking for a program that supports strong academics along with competitive volleyball.

I want to be part of a team that is competitive, accountable, and connected. I value clear communication from coaches and teammates who push each other.

Off the court, I enjoy painting, ceramics, music, and spending time with friends. I also balance school, volleyball, and part time work, which has helped me build discipline and time management.

What I want coaches to understand is that I am reliable, competitive, and committed to improving. I take coaching seriously and want to keep growing and contributing to a team.
