Here is a quick update for all of our female high school superheroes who have committed to play NCAA volleyball at the collegiate level. Less than 5% of current players end up moving on to play at the college levels.
NJP continues to work on the college links project to show all current college players with roots in New Jersey so you can follow their success post graduation from high school. We will continue to add players to this page as information comes available.
Here is our latest updates with more to come soon…
