Coach Bryant on van Gerven…
“Kate came into the program after having spent her freshman year at a different college. She did a wonderful job acclimating to our program, culture, and standards. It is my hope that she will continue to improve her game and skills as both a blocker and attacker to give us some quality rotations in important spots.”
