“Halle is an athlete that every coach would love to have,” expressed Head Coach Cliff Hastings. “She has an incredible work ethic with high expectations of herself and her teammates. She’s successful, but she’s also a leader who wants nothing but success for her teammates as well.”
Everett was honored with two national awards for her performances during the week of February 8-14. The American Volleyball Coaches Association named her the Sports Imports/AVCA Women’s Two-Year College Player of the Week, and the National Junior College Athletic Association named her the Tachikara 2020-21 NJCAA DII Volleyball Offensive Player of the Week.
“Off the court, she’s a top performer in the classroom,” added Hastings. “And if that’s not enough, she’s also a wonderful person that we’re all blessed to simply know and have the opportunity to spend a chapter of our lives with.”
Everett is the daughter of Chad and Dawn Everett. Her academic pursuits include Science.
