Comment from our Lady Eagle:

" Reinhardt has been a wonderful experience for me thus far. There are so many positive things i could say about the college. The students, the faculty, the education, the sports, all these things have made me love being at this school.  Volleyball has been great, i have been able to continue playing my favorite sport, while at the same time meeting some great girls who have become great friends.  I am also very excited about this upcoming season we have a great team that i think we will do great things. I enjoy all my classes and the faculty is fantastic, always there to help and give whatever guidance. I have made wonderful friends and have learned so much while being at Reinhardt college.  I have had some of my greatest memories here and plan to have many more over that next two year, and i will cherish these memories forever.

Comment from Coach Monds:

Meg is the beating heart on this team.  We live and die by her efforts which are tremendous.  Meg has a quiet demeanor, yet makes everyone on the team want to work hard to get her the ball.  I'm blessed to have her for 2 more years!"
