Chloe Alderson recently won the DFW 2020 Volleyball Preseason Setter of the Year Poll. VYPE caught up with Alderson for the 411 on the star from Richland High School.
VYPE: How long have you been playing Volleyball and how did you get your start?
Alderson: I started playing volleyball on a rec team when I was 9. When I was 13 I began playing club volleyball and have been playing club ever since.
VYPE: Go-to pregame meal? Routine?
Alderson: Before a game I always stretch to make sure I am loose and prepared. I don't usually eat a large meal before a game because I feel like it slows me down. I usually have a snack like a granola bar or trail mix instead.
VYPE: Favorite subject in school?
Alderson: My favorite subjects in school are math and science.
VYPE: What's your biggest strength? Or What do You Bring to Your Team?
Alderson: I try to be a positive leader on and off the court. I try to let my actions show my values of hard work and determination.
VYPE: Off the field, what is your favorite thing to do?
Alderson: When I'm not playing volleyball I love hanging out with friends and learning anything related to astronomy and engineering.
VYPE: What has been your greatest HS memory so far?Alderson: One of my best high school memories is the RHS volleyball team tradition of going to Babe's Chicken after the Granbury tournament every year.
