Glamour College Women of the Year Sheryl Lee Ralph, Moore talks balancing her love of volleyball with the rigors of being a Cornell student, her tireless advocacy, and how she unwinds off the court.Sheryl Lee Ralph: So, Sydney Moore of Cornell University, why volleyball?Sydney Moore: I actually started off playing basketball.
I grew up in a very athletic family.
My mom played pro basketball internationally.
I wanted to be just like her.
But around my eighth grade to freshman year of high school, I started getting burnt out.
I was playing for top programs, traveling all around the country at a very young age.
It became something I didn't want to do anymore.
And I was invited to come to volleyball tryouts at a gym by a friend that I played basketball with, and I loved it.
I am a very analytical person.
And while basketball definitely has that, volleyball, it's built in.
Every single move you make is kind of a chess match.
There's few better feelings in the world than getting a big block or a kill.So here you are at Cornell.
How does one who is a star athlete come to terms with balancing athletics and academics?It definitely doesn't come easy.
I had to come to terms with the fact I was going to feel FOMO sometimes.
I describe it as athlete guilt, or career guilt, because everyone at Cornell is operating at a very high level.
I have that expectation that I'm going to be top in the classroom; I'm also going to be top on the court.But sometimes things are going to fall off.
So maybe I won't get the sixth hour of studying this week.
Maybe I'm only going to get five and a half, but I'm going to get that extra 30 minutes to sleep and that's going to put me at a better level of success for my game.
