Jamie comes to UD from Ottawa, Kan. Jaime was a 3-time All-Area middle blocker for Ottawa High School, leading her team to the Kansas State Tournament and selected to the Kansas-Missouri All-Star game. She also ran track for Ottawa, twice making it to the Kansas State Meet. Additionally, Jaime played club volleyball, competing for Midwest Jrs and the Zoom volleyball club. Jaime also excelled academically at Ottawa, a National Honor student and Kansas Governor’s Scholar. Jaime was editor of the campus newspaper, active in youth leadership on campus and in the community. 

Jaime will be switching to outside hitter for the Crusaders, a position where her explosive jump and strong arm can best be utilized. Although primarily a middle blocker in high school and club, Jaime was an all-around player who often played on the outside. Big things are expected of Jaime as she moves into the outside hitter position previously held by fellow Kansan, Liz Baska, who graduated last spring.

Jaime is interested in studying Business and Journalism at UD. In her free time, Jamie is dedicated to her fitness and nutrition.
