LOUISVILLE — When Hannah Pukis entered the transfer portal a year ago, she wrote down a list of questions she had about potential new schools.
As the all-Pac-12 volleyball setter sought answers to those questions from head coaches, the list of outgoing calls on her phone grew and grew. And after one call in particular, her messages inbox quickly filled up, too.
When members of the UO volleyball team found out Pukis was looking for a new home, they made it clear she'd be welcomed in Eugene with open arms.
"I think seven Oregon players reached out to me," Pukis recalled.
