Why Lehigh? “I chose Lehigh because of the balance between challenging academics and competitive athletics, as well as the valuable opportunity to contribute to the volleyball program early on.”
On Coach Maurer:
“Coach Maurer is honest and will challenge her players to become better on and off the court. I would tell an incoming recruit that Coach Maurer is extremely dedicated and will go to great lengths to make sure the team succeeds.”
On the Lehigh student-athlete experience:
“To be a part of the Lehigh student-athlete experience means you represent the school not only while on campus but 24/7. It means keeping up in the classroom and treating others with respect both in the classroom and on the court. It also means challenging yourself in practices and games and representing Lehigh in a positive manner."
