GANNON INCREASES 2008
VOLLEYBALL RECRUITING CLASS TO SIX

ERIE, Pa. - Gannon head volleyball coach Matt Darling has announced the addition of Chelsea Barrett (Coloma, Mich./Coloma) to the volleyball program Thursday afternoon, increasing the 2008 recruiting class to six.
   
Barrett brings an impressive volleyball resume to Gannon. The 5’9” outside hitter was a three-time all-conference and two-time all-region selection, as well as being named to the All-State academic team as a senior. She led Coloma High School to three conference titles, two district titles, and one regional title during her high school career.
   
The Coloma, Mich., native was named to the South Bend Tribune Sportsfest Michigan All-Star team. She was also named Coloma’s best defensive player as a senior and received the Coach’s Award twice.
   
Barrett was a two-sport athlete at Coloma, participating in volleyball and track and field. She earned all-conference second-team accolades in the high jump as a senior and the pole vault as a junior and senior. She also received the “Green Award” as a senior member of the track and field team.
   
Academically, Barrett has been just as impressive while graduating as Coloma’s Valedictorian. She was a four-time selection to the All-Conference Academic team and was a Herald Palladium Academic All-Star nominee.
   
Barrett joins five other student-athletes who had already committed to the Gannon volleyball program. Bios for those five players can be found at http://www.gannon.edu/sports/women/volleyball/Highlights/Recruits.ihtml.

Gannon begins its first season as a member of the Pennsylvania State Athletic Conference (PSAC) in 2008-09.
