Cara Smith

Russ Rose Then (2001): I am really pleased with Cara’s development.  I thought she had a great freshman year.  She is as mature an athlete and person as we have had in a long time.  She is in control of every aspect of her life.  She’s a good student, a good volleyball player, and is very focused.  That’s a great reflection on the type of person she is.  We look forward to her continued development into one of our top offensive players.
