Torrance Lovesee is a varsity volleyball player at Bluestem High School and she is a member of the Fellowship of Christian Athletes. “When being a student-athlete I am always doing something to make myself better,” said Lovesee. “FCA not only makes me a better person but as a teammate. I have made so many new bonds with people that I never thought I would, but it was because of FCA that I spend time with those people.”
This season was a challenge taking on more of a leadership role for the team. “This volleyball season taught me how to get out of my comfort zone. It also taught me a lot of responsibilities on how to teach and be a good leader for the younger classmen playing sports,” said Lovesee.
Being the spotlight athlete for the FCA is a special moment for Lovesee. “It makes me feel like I am not only helping myself follow Christ in my athletics and school but also helping other people follow him as well. FCA is a great place to get to know and grow with new people,” she said.
Outside of sports, Lovesee serves on the Student Council, is in dance and a member of National Honor Society. Her future plans include playing college volleyball while pursuing a degree in biology. Her ultimate goal is to become an Orthodontist.
Lovesee offers this advice to other athletes considering FCA. “Trying new things can be nerve racking but FCA is full of welcoming people that are there to help and learn with you. It is so much fun and when it gets to fall and spring conferences you have to go, because you not only get to be with your friends but you meet so many wonderful people through God.”
