She Aced That

Nobody Talks About The Yips or Pushing Through JV as a Junior (So We Did) ft. Alyssa Kerrigan


Listen Later

Not everyone goes D1. Not everyone has the perfect trajectory in their sports career. But everyone who stays in the game has a story worth telling.Sometimes the JV journey makes the best varsity story. Alyssa Kerrigan proves that your worth as an athlete isn't determined by making varsity as a sophomore or committing to a D1 school. It's about what you do when the path isn't perfect.


In this episode we cover:

✓ Walking into high school tryouts knowing NOBODY (and how volleyball saved her)

✓ The moment she made JV as a Junior (and why she didn't quit)

✓ Her senior year redemption that ended with All-Conference honors

✓ The "yips" - that thing no athlete talks about but everyone experiences

✓ Roommates, Teammates & Drama

✓ Living together through it all - the friendship that survived everything
