OTHER FACTS: Lindsey has a unique court perspective because she is a triplet and plays on our team with both her sisters. Prior to college they were trained in three different positions by AVCA Hall of Famer Irene Matlock and came to our program as a well-oiled machine. She has a background of success and led her high school team to the state of Washington title match both her junior and senior seasons.

She is a focused student-athlete with above a 3.5 GPA. Athletically we have used her skills in a 5-1 and a 6-2. She is a valuable setter and attacker. As a freshman Lindsey helped propel our team to the NWAC championship and to an unwavering season record of 40-0. Lindsey's is our quarterback and runs a sneaky, fast paced offense that highlights her teammates and dupes her opponents. We are excited to work with her in 2019.
