#COVshoutout to abbey.klinkhamer from #COV18Platinum on her commitment to Shorter University!! 🔹Abbey chose shorter_volleyball because she immediately felt so welcomed the moment she stepped in the gym. She could just tell there was a very special culture and a strong team led by amazing coaches. 🔹Abbey would like to first thank God for blessing her with this opportunity and giving her the strength to be able to continue this journey. She would also like to thank her parents for being her biggest support system throughout the years and for the countless sacrifices they’ve made to help get her here. Lastly she would like to thank all of the coaches she’s had over the years, especially all the coaches at Club One. Every coach has pushed her to grow as a player and truly fall in love with the sport! 🔹Abbey’s encouragement to younger athletes: “Never give up and always be looking for the joy even when things get tough." #COVproud
