WHY SANTA CLARA: "I've toured many different schools and volleyball programs across the nation but there isn't anything quite like Santa Clara University. I felt an instant connection to the players; I knew that they would become my future lifelong friends. I was really inspired by the Leavey Center. I could picture myself spending countless hours practicing with my coaches and team, getting better and working hard. But Santa Clara is far more than a gym. I was struck by the academic vigor and the internship opportunities within the business school. Santa Clara is the right school for me because it will guide me as I develop, learn, and grow to reach my future goals and aspirations."
