Kohan on Graetzer
"Silvie has grown immensely in the past year, both physically and in her development as a player. She is a dynamic middle blocker that can hit a slide with a lot of power and range, which is a huge asset to our offense that has always prioritized middle attacking. She's tough and a hard worker - we love athletes that continue to grow late in their careers knowing that they will keep that trajectory when they join our program."

Graetzer on CSU
"I chose CSU because it's the place that checked the most boxes and was somewhere I'd want to play volleyball at and attend school. When I went to campus I fell in love with the mountains and cute city of Fort Collins. For me, people really make the place and I felt so welcomed by the coaching staff and the girls and can tell they have a very strong team culture built. I can see myself playing in Moby Arena, and the support from fans and the community with such a strong volleyball program is hard to find. When I visited, I really knew in my gut that this was the place for me and I'm so, so excited for the next four years in Fort Collins!"
