Sophomore setter Sarah Rose knew head coach Ryan Theis and his coaching staff long before she ever stepped foot in the Al McGuire Center.
Theis recruited Rose’s older sister, Caroline while at Ohio University, although Caroline chose Western Michigan University over the Bobcats.
Now that Rose has been in a Marquette uniform for two seasons, she has provided Theis a versatile option in the back line.
When Theis first recruited the younger Rose sister, he was looking for a setter that could also play defensive specialist. The American Volleyball Coaches Association All-American nominee fit the bill.
