Athlete of the Week: Sarah Wallace ’18

September 22, 2016

What She’s Done:

To start the 2016 season, Wallace, the 2015 Centennial Conference MVP, has not missed a beat. Last week, Wallace averaged 3.86 kills per set and 3.14 digs per set, helping spur her team to the Neumann Invitational title and a 5-0 record. In addition to being named the MVP of the invitational, she recorded her 1000th career kill and was named Centennial Conference player of the week.

Why Volleyball?

Out of all the sports I tried playing when I was little, volleyball was my favorite because I found it to be the most exciting. I like how it’s a high scoring game and how a team can come back from a point deficit at any time.

Person You Look up to Most:

My sister is the person that I look up to most because she finds ways to succeed in tough situations, particularly with balancing Division I volleyball and being pre-med at Harvard.

Favorite type of Ice Cream:

Coffee
