Bulldog Volleyball Signs Three to National Letter of Intent
CHARLESTON, S.C. – The Citadel Volleyball program and head coach Carolyn Geiger announced on Monday the signing of three players to a National Letter of Intent. Emily Dalton, Jessica Maxwell and Cassie Uribe will join the Bulldogs for the 2009 season. Maxwell and Uribe attend the same high school that current Bulldog Tatum Jestila attended.
“I am excited to announce the signing of three talented and academically strong student-athletes during the early signing period,” said Geiger. “All three players come from strong high school and club programs.”
Dalton, a 5-10 outside hitter from Cary, Ill., attends Cary-Grove High School, where she earned three varsity letters in volleyball. Her 2008 Cary-Grove team was crowned the Fox Valley Conference Champions after recording a 31-6 overall record and a 9-1 conference record. She was a member of the 2007 Regional Fox Conference championship team and the 2006 Fox Conference championship team that completed an undefeated season. Dalton played for Club Fusion and will major in Health, Exercise and Sport Science.
Maxwell, a 6-0 middle blocker from Scottsdale, Ariz., attends Notre Dame Prep High School, where she was a member of the Arizona 4AII State Championship team and the Black Canyon Region Championship team. Maxwell was a 2008 All-Region First Team selection and a 2007 All-Region Second Team selection. She played for the Arizona Juniors and will major in psychology or criminal justice.
Uribe, a 5-11 outside hitter from Scottsdale, Ariz., attends Notre Dame Prep High School, along with Maxwell. She was a member of the Arizona 4AII State Championship team and the Black Canyon Region Championship team. Uribe was a 2008 and a 2007 All-Region First Team selection. This past season, she was selected as Player of the Year for her region and was the Most Valuable Player for the Millennium Tournament. She played for the Arizona Sky and will major in business administration, criminal justice or Spanish.
“Jessica and Cassie are still leading their high school team on a quest for a state championship,” Geiger added. “They are a solid combination on the front row and anchor the team in the back court. All three will bring added height and depth to our team. All three young ladies will help us build this program and will be a valuable member of the Corps of Cadets next year.”
