Kansas State volleyball head coach Suzie Fritz announced the newest member of the three-person 2016 signing class on Friday as Elle Sandbothe (Lee’s Summit, Missouri/Lee’s Summit West) signed a National Letter of Intent (NLI) during the Fall National Signing Period.
A 5-foot-11 middle blocker, Sandbothe totaled more than 500 kills and 300 blocks in three years as a letterwinner at Lee’s Summit West while also garnering all-conference and all-state honors. She had a career-high 212 kills along with 105 blocks in her senior year.
“Elle is all about speed: arm speed, foot speed. She gets from side to side in a hurry,” said Fritz.
