Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Chasing Opportunity with Maycor Carrion (Part 1)
Q: What did you learn about starting smaller and working your way up in the recruitment process?
Starting at smaller programs and proving yourself there can be a more realistic and effective approach than aiming directly for big-name schools; perform well academically and athletically to climb step by step toward higher-level opportunities.
Chasing Opportunity with Maycor Carrion (Part 1)
Q: Talk about the recruiting process and what you had to do to build those connections for scholarships.
I sent around a hundred emails to coaches, created highlights and gathered clips from different tournaments, and navigated a costly application process across currencies; persistence and strategic outreach were key, even when many coaches didn't respond.
Chasing Opportunity with Maycor Carrion (Part 1)
Q: Take us back. How in the world did you get here to Huntsville, Alabama?
I started playing volleyball in the Dominican Republic after trying baseball, moved through local clubs and schools, and eventually pursued opportunities in the US by applying to multiple colleges, chasing scholarships, and networking with coaches until I found a path to study and play in the US, eventually joining Alabama A&M.
The Heart Behind the Coaching with Celeste Walton (Part 3)
Q: What does being 'Better Together' mean to you in this context?
Celeste describes it as coaches and players growing together, holding each other accountable, and supporting one another to elevate the entire club beyond individual success.
The Heart Behind the Coaching with Celeste Walton (Part 3)
Q: What areas are you most excited about helping grow and improve?
She's particularly excited about developing the younger players, expanding programming, and upholding the United standard across all programs so every child gets full value. She emphasizes safe, engaging, and growth-focused training.
