Grace Oelrich helped lead the Newberry volleyball team to the Class 1A state championship game in November. The senior outside hitter led the Panthers (23-4) in kills (265), aces (68), and blocks (99).
On Tuesday, Oelrich signed a letter of intent with Rollins College in Winter Park. However, she won’t be playing volleyball.
Although Oelrich was recruited for volleyball, Rollins College didn’t have a spot for her but knew she was a good athlete, so she was handed off to the rowing coach.
