Russ Rose Then (2002): “I thought Tab had a good freshman season last year.  She played well in a lot of tough situatioins and was our first backrow sub, giving her a lot of experience.  With the rally scoring format she needs to develop a serve that can get her on the floor and provide us some opportunities to score more points.  Tab is a confident player who has an exceptional volleyball IQ, in that she knows where she’s supposed to be and plays hard.  She is a person that is proud to be a collegiate athlete and demonstrates it every day.  She is a very special young lady.”
