Sophomore Alexa Smith, a 6-foot-1 outside hitter from Colorado Springs, has joined the University of Colorado volleyball team, head coach Jesse Mahoney announced.
Smith played one season for the Purdue Boilermakers and will have three years of eligibility.
"We couldn't be more excited that Alexa chose to return home to Colorado," Mahoney said. "She is a true six-rotation player that can execute all skills at a high level, but having watched her in the club ranks, what really stood out to me with Alexa is her competitive spirit. She knows what it takes to play and succeed at a high level and she will fit in well with the culture that we are building here in our program.
