Volleyball Adds Defensive Specialist Alexa Roumeliotis

OMAHA, Neb. -- Alexa Roumeliotis will join the Creighton Volleyball team in the fall, head coach Kirsten Bernthal Booth announced on Tuesday.

A native of Menlo Park, Calif., Roumeliotis (ROO-me-lee-otis) is a 5-foot-8 defensive specialist and will have four years of eligibility when she enrolls in the fall.

"We feel really fortunate that we were able to get Alexa so late in the game," said Creighton head coach Kirsten Bernthal Booth. "She had committed to Army as a sophomore and was really excited about that opportunity. She then had a back injury and wasn't able to pass the physical testing during the time frame that she needed to pass it, which re-opened her search.
