Ep.71 Kamrynn Clay
Today on The Live Tap Podcast, I sit down with Alabama State Volleyball standout Kamrynn Clay for an inspiring conversation about her journey from growing up in Hedwig, Texas, to becoming the best setter in the SWAC conference. Kamrynn opens up about the adversity she faced throughout her athletic journey, the challenges that helped shape her into the player she is today, and the massive leap she made from her freshman to sophomore season. After taking her game to another level and earning SWAC Setter of the Year, Kamrynn discusses what fueled her breakout season and the work that went into reaching that point. But despite all the individual accomplishments, Kamrynn's ultimate goal remains bigger than personal accolades: winning a SWAC Championship with Alabama State. We talk about her mindset, the team's expectations, and what it will take to turn that goal into reality.
