Hey 'Cuse fans! Syracuse volleyball will be releasing a weekly offseason blog with one entry from each student-athlete. This week marks the eighth installment of our 'Offseason Updater' with an excerpt from junior Amber Witherspoon!
Name: Amber Witherspoon
Postition: Middle Blocker
Year: Junior
Major: Human Development and Family Sciences in the David B. Falk College of Sport and Human Dynamics
Hometown: Chicago, Illinois
Amber: From classes, practice and attending the USA tryouts, my offseason has been extraordinarily eventful. Therefore, my goal this spring semester was to make sure I found a balance in my schedule. I've been determined to stay focus and organized to stay ahead during the spring semester.
I was fortunate enough to travel to Colorado Springs this past weekend for the USA tryout. This was an experience that I will always cherish and use to help strengthen my role on the team. The spring workouts with our coaches and strength and conditioning trainer without a doubt got me prepared for the tryouts.
Although it's been a challenging but rewarding spring semester, I had to take advantage of the extra time by attending sporting events and joining Fashion Conscious. I'm extremely excited to be a part of planning the fashion show and concert for the fashion organization, as it's something I've been passionate about joining since my freshman year. I look forward to engaging with the SU community on and off the court.
