“I am incredibly excited to have Shayla signing to play at SMC next fall,” Nate said. “She is an outstanding outside hitter, leader and top scholar-athlete coming from a strong high school program, and she will be an integral part of our team.”

“Shalya is such a great, consistent and level-headed player,” said Edwardsburg Coach Nikki Bush. “She handles pressure well and will step up and perform. She is the definition of a team player and will fit any role for which she is needed.”
