About Me




Hi! My name is Avery Merritt and I am from Kirkland Washington and I go to Eastside Catholic in Sammamish Washington. I enjoy playing volleyball and beach volleyball, spending time with family and friends, exploring, lifting weights, and meeting new people. I love volleyball because not only do I get to play the sport I love and learn new things, I love the people it brings into my life and the places that it takes me. Some of my most important relationships have come from the sport and this encourages me to work as hard as I can to further my volleyball career along with my education in college! Something I really like about volleyball is being able to make a mistake and quickly learn from it. Outside of volleyball I spend alot of time weightlifting. Not only is it a fun activity, but it pushes me to be mentally stronger, and become a better athlete. Outside of athletics I love to surround myself with fun people who like to try new things and push themselves to reach their goals!

Player Evaluation

I am so excited to be helping Avery through the recruiting process to help her find her perfect fit.  Avery is a great young lady who puts in so much work to be the best student-athlete she can be.

Avery plays both outside and right side, and also gets some time as a defensive specialist.  She is 6’1, touches 9’7, and is incredibly strong.  Her ball control is phenomenal.  She has a calm and quiet platform with really good touch. She makes a good, early read on the ball and moves well while covering a good amount of court with her length.  She is balanced and smooth on her feet, and can pass well outside her body.

As a hitter, Avery hits a heavy ball.  She hits both line and angle well from either pin and hits the BIC with good pace.  Her arm is high and she has a good contact on the ball.  I believe with her size, strength, and ball control, Avery will make a good 6 rotation pin hitter. She also puts in a lot of extra work to be a better athlete with her strength training regimen, beach volleyball, and extra skills trainings.  I am really excited to watch this young lady blossom into the volleyball player she has the potential to be.

Avery has a 3.90 GPA and is in Honors Society.  It is important for her to have not only a good athletic fit, but a good academic fit as well.  She is motivated to find the right school to help her be a successful adult.  I believe she has tremendous upside and could be a great college student-athlete.  Please let me know if there is any more information on Avery needed.
