Peterson is excited for the opportunity to help the team and become even closer to the players.
“I’ve played club volleyball before so I already have a pretty good idea of what the players will need from me,” said Peterson.
“I was already friends with a lot of the girls on the team before I became team manager, so I’m excited to be able to see them more. I think I’m a good fit for team manager because we all get along already,” she continued.
