WHAT SHE’S DONE: Set the volleyball program’s career assists record during the Centennial Conference tournament, with 3,210 and counting going into the Garnet’s Wednesday night ECAC matchup against Delaware Valley.

FAVORITE CAREER MOMENT: One that stands out is when we beat Haverford my sophomore year in playoffs. We lost to them in the regular season, and then beat them in the semi-finals in five sets. It was amazing because they were the top seed and the reigning conference champs for the past four years.

POST-VOLLEYBALL PLANS: I know that volleyball will continue to remain an important part of my life, whether I’m playing or coaching or just watching games … It’s a sport that I will always stay connected to.

WHAT BIRD WOULD CARRY A VOLLEYBALL? I bet a red-tailed hawk could carry a volleyball if it wanted to.

FAVORITE BREAKFAST CEREAL: I love Life.
