Labrecque on choosing Colgate: “I chose Colgate University because from the moment I stepped on campus, it immediately felt like home. I was drawn to the close-knit, quiet community, which offers the perfect environment to focus on both academics and athletics. During my recruiting visit, my future teammates and coaches were incredibly welcoming and genuine, making it easy to picture myself as part of the program. Being within five hours of my home in Eastern Canada was also important to me, as it allows my parents to come support me regularly. On top of that, Colgate's reputation as a Top 100 NCAA Division I volleyball program made it an exciting and inspiring place to continue my athletic career.”
