Volleyball picks up French JUCO transfer

Marquette volleyball bolstered its defense with the addition of transfer student Manon Geoffroy for the 2016-’17 season. Geoffroy has completed two years at San Jacinto, a junior college in Pasadena, Texas, and will have two years of athletic eligibility remaining at Marquette.

“She has a lot of great leadership traits,” said Marquette head coach Ryan Theis. “Hard work, wanting to keep teammates together – she’s really good with that – those are all things that we like a lot about her.”

Before attending San Jacinto, Geoffroy played competitive volleyball in France, her home country. Geoffroy’s team won the 2012 French AAU championship and she won Libero of the Year honors.
