Citrus player headed to San Francisco State
Citrus College sophomore Mackenzie Pike will continue her playing career with NCAA Division II San Francisco State next year. Pike, who was third in the state this past season with a 6.55 digs per game average, was a 1st team All-WSC selection and will leave Citrus as one of the all-time leaders in digs.
"I'm looking forward to the competition and travel that the next level will provide," Pike said. "Citrus has helped me improve over the last couple of years tremendously. My attitude, patience, passing, setting, and overall game has improved over the past two seasons."
Pike will be joining a young Gator's squad that finished the season just three games under .500 last year.
"Mackenzie has been a solid citizen and a great role model for Citrus College and the volleyball program," Citrus College Head Volleyball Coach Shin Jung said. "I can not emphasize enough the impact that she has made for the program and the work ethic she has left for others to follow."
