College Commitments & Alumni
COLLEGE BOUND ATHLETES AND ALUMNI
We are very proud of the more than 330 EVJ athletes that have gone on to play collegiately. In 2022, 11 athletes went on to play at the next level. The class of 2016 remains our biggest class ever with 21 athletes moving on to play volleyball at the collegiate level. Currently, 3 of our class of 2023 athletes have committed.
Our alumni are a source of inspiration for current and future EVJ players. We encourage our players to use this list as a valuable resource in their college selection process. Due to the vast number of athletes who have gone on to play in college over the past 33 years we have compiled the list in a .pdf file (found below, list continues to be procured).
If you are an EVJ alumni but you are not on this list, or if we are missing or have incorrect information about you please email EVJ Info with the details.
Learn more about how we can help you become College Bound.
