The first-year outside hitter led Swarthmore with 19 kills in the volleyball team’s first playoff win in history against Muhlenberg on Nov. 4.

Favorite career moment:

“First, making playoffs. And then winning our first conference playoff game ever.”

Career goals:

“The big goal is to win the conference and get an NCAA bid.”

Favorite food:

“Italian. It’s my comfort food.”
