Kelsey on the USA Volleyball Show

  • On handling pressure-packed situations"I try to prepare for that the same way I would for any other match. The one thing I do that always brings me back to the moment is breathing. I really focus on my breath, I focus on being present in the moment and my task on hand. Everything else just fades away and it becomes me in this moment right here trying to get that next point. That’s what gives me confidence to go into a final and perform really well because I’ve done the work already. I’ve done it time and time again. It just feels normal to me."
