GREENVILLE, N.C. – Stephie Andrušková will attend East Carolina University and compete for the Pirates on the volleyball court beginning in the fall of 2017, according to an announcement Thursday by head coach Julie Torbett.
Andrušková, a 6-1 outside hitter, hails from Bratislava, Slovakia.
"Stephie is a tremendous player that we expect will come in and make an impact right away on the outside," Torbett said. "She is very smart, speaks very good English and will fit right in with the team. We will benefit from her international playing experience and her style of play on the court. Stephie is a strong competitor that will be ready to go and do whatever is needed for the team. She has a great personality and chose East Carolina over many opportunities at other top Division I programs in the United States."
Andrušková played her prep volleyball at Gymnázium Ceská 10 where she earned academic honors all eight semesters. She also competed for VKP Bratislava, a team that is a member of the top league in the nation. Andrušková helped lead the side to third place at the National Slovak Championship.
VKP Bratislava is the most successful volleyball team in Slovakia with 11 national championships since 1993.
