My Safe Haven - a place of spandex & sweat

My name is Erika Lynn Schmidt and I am a born and raised Fallston girl.  Although, when you ask me what I call home I will answer the volleyball court. Home is an escape, a place to relax and find peace—I have found that on the court. For the five years I played competitively it was my home; now my home has become something different. I’m a coach at St. Paul's. I am on the sidelines coaching a new generation as they find their home, but I am still close enough that I find comfort in being there.
