Amherst College Athletics

• "I made Virginia Wesleyan my top choice because it's a smaller school, which I like because I'm coming from a small high school. I love the location of the school, it's far enough from home, but not too far. Also, I like the volleyball program and the coaching staff. And, the housing is nice too."
