Kelly Robertson, a 6’0″ Junior MH/OH from Parkland High School in Pennsylvania, committed verbally in mid-February 2012 to join Penn State for the class of 2013. As noted on the Synergy Volleyball Club website, Kelly has earned numerous honors, including MVP awards for her league, and the District and PIAA AAA state championship tournaments. Kelly also was selected to the Pennsylvania Volleyball Coaches All State team, was also a finalist for the 2011 Pennsylvania Gatorade Player of the Year, and, as reported by the Synergy Volleyball Club, was named by PrepVolleyball.com as an All American and finalist for National Junior of the Year (as was her Parkland High School teammate (and cousin) and fellow 2013 Penn State verbal commit, Taylor Krause).
The Synergy Volleyball Club website notes that Robertson had been contacted by colleges from the Big Ten, SEC, Big East, Colonial Athletic Association and the Patriot League conferences, and had received multiple scholarship offers. To 17 Lehigh Coach Mike Krause, Robertson has earned the attention:
Kelly has been the offensive mainstay for both high school and Synergy Lehigh teams. Kelly is a very deserving, humble, hard working young lady. She is a teammate who values team success ahead of individual accomplishment.
Welcome Kelly!
