As the five most recent graduates from the volleyball team prepare to embark on the next phase of their educational journeys, two student-athletes have signed on to continue playing the sport they love at the university level.

Candace Grosjean and Alyzabeth Vincent will join the volleyball team at the University of St. Thomas in Houston after receiving their associate degrees from Lee College last weekend at spring commencement. Grosjean is a graduate of Robert E. Lee High School in Baytown, while Vincent graduated from Deer Park High School.

“We are really proud of this group — not only for what they’ve done in athletics, but also for all they have done in school,” said Head Coach Tracie Johnson, who became acquainted with Grosjean and Vincent when both girls were in the seventh grade and beginning to build their volleyball skills. “I will miss these ladies a lot.”

Grosjean and Vincent counted the exceptional athletic facilities at Lee College among the things they would miss most about Lee volleyball program, along with their teammates and coaches and the feeling of playing in the Sports Arena. Both are looking forward to what the next chapter holds.

“It’s so exciting to be able to finish college and get to play volleyball while we’re doing it,” Grosjean said. “We’ll have a lot of chemistry on the court, and I’m happy that we will be able to play another 2 years together.”

Vincent agreed, adding, “We’re excited to play again and thankful for this opportunity.”
