Personal

Comes from Wildcat roots, as her mother, the former Misti Germany, played volleyball at ACU, while her father, Duane, was a pitcher on the baseball team
Misti was a three-time All-Lone Star Conference South Division First Team honoree from 1999 to 2001, pacing the Wildcats in kills in each season as an outside hitter

What head coach Ijeoma Moronu Alstrup is saying:

"We are so excited to be adding Wildcat legacy Hadlee Welch. Hadlee will immediately add height to the team, having proven to be a formidable block as well as offensive player on both pins. Hadlee has the potential to make an immediate impact on the floor at either the right side or outside position."
