La Mirada High School proudly recognizes Kamil Scott, an 11th-grade standout and the October Athlete of the Month. As the team’s middle blocker and wearing #1, Kamil has become a key contributor to the volleyball program through her dedication, competitiveness, and natural athletic ability.

Kamil has been playing volleyball for three years, quickly developing into a dynamic presence at the net. What she loves most about the sport is the environment—the energy, the competition, and the excitement that comes with every point. That passion helped her achieve one of her proudest moments: winning nationals with her club team during her freshman year, a milestone that continues to motivate her.

Her favorite athlete is her oldest brother, someone she admires for being naturally talented in every sport he plays. He also coaches her in track and has helped guide her and her siblings to the Junior Olympics three years in a row, making him a huge influence both on and off the court.

While volleyball is her favorite sport to watch and play, Scott is also a dedicated track athlete, competing in the long jump, triple jump, and relay events—another testament to her versatility. Looking ahead, she hopes to continue her volleyball career at the next level, with USC as her dream school, though she’s open to any strong collegiate program.

Head Coach Kayla Long shared high praise for Kamil’s character and impact on the team:
“Kamil is a dynamic and dedicated student-athlete that stands out for her incredible versatility, athleticism, and unwavering commitment to her team. Whether stepping into new roles, adapting to challenges, or leading by example, she consistently gives her best in every situation. Kamil consistently encourages, supports, and celebrates her teammates every step of the way. Her passion, adaptability, and leadership make her an invaluable part of any team that is well deserving of Athlete of the Month.”

With her commitment, leadership, and competitive spirit, Kamil Scott continues to elevate her team and represent La Mirada with pride. Congratulations to our October Athlete of the Month!
