MOSCOW, Idaho— For an athlete what could top winning championships and setting records? Well for the Vandal athletics senior class, what awaits them on May 10, could arguably be the single proudest moment of their careers, receiving a college degree. With graduation in sight, Idaho volleyball senior libero Alycia Wodke, caught up with the university's student-run newspaper, The Argonaut, where she shared her love for volleyball, Idaho and her teammates and coaches.

 "In a season filled with broken records and remarkable runs, it can be easy to forget about the members of Idaho volleyball's 2018 team that were not constantly flying high at the net.

While there are dozens of thunderous kills to remember, it would be an absolute shame to gloss over senior libero Alycia Wodke. The 2018 Big Sky Libero of the Year was a critical guiding presence for the Vandals this year, far beyond even her own impressive stat sheets.

'It's been an incredible experience to play around such a remarkable group of women, and it's changed my life and career for the better to have been a part of it,' said Wodke.

As long as Wodke can remember, volleyball has been a central part of her life. 

'With my dad being a coach, I was around volleyball from the beginning. It was something that I was really able to put myself into and it allowed me to meet some of the best people of my life,' Wodke said. 'But it all started with my dad as he was very involved as a parent and coach, and he was able to steer me on a path to fall in love with it as he did.'

Once she began exploring her options at the next level, Wodke ended up at the College of Southern Idaho to start her career. In her time with the Eagles, she earned NJCAA All-American honors, and she finished fifth all-time in kills and digs in the program. Again looking for the next step, Wodke began turning her focus north."
