Russ Rose Then (2012): “Erica works hard and she is healthy for the first time since arriving at Penn Srare. I feel she’s clearly in the mix as one of ou r middle attackers and is a smart blocker.”

Russ Rose Now (2025): “Erica had good vision, fast feet and a good arm. She was bright and aggressive at the net. She had a back injury and didn’t get to play as much as originally planned.   She was an integral part of the team, with her ability to communicate with everybody and keep the energy high.  Erica was another individual who didn’t play as much as she might have somewhere else, but she always came to the gym with a great attitude and worked hard. After the 2013 season she transferred to the University of Denver, where she played well and helped them to the NCAA tournament. She is having great success in the business world and is getting married.”
