WHY SHE CHOSE MIZZOU
- "Before I had the chance to look at Mizzou, I was already between other choices, but I felt as if I was bound to make the wrong one,” Hollingsworth recalled. “None of those other schools spoke to me in a way that made me think about my future four years at college. I was still in 11th grade when I saw my first Mizzou Volleyball match. I remember it clearly. It was against the Florida Gators and the Tigers won in five sets. The feeling I had during the match was unforgettable. The Mizzou girls were working together and the atmosphere at the Hearnes Center was awesome. After my official visit, I was 100-percent sure that there was no other place I wanted to be at.”
