Coach Williams on Pearcy: "Bailey is a quick athlete that will add depth to our setting position. She has a lot of qualities that we look for in a setter and we are excited to add her to the team."
Pearcy on choosing MSUB: "I always knew I wanted to go to MSUB. Playing volleyball there was my dream. I chose MSUB because of the location and what the city has to offer. The size of campus is just right and it has my planned major, business administration. I love the energy and drive Coach Williams has for her team, and I cannot wait to play for her."
MSUB's volleyball improved its record for the third straight year and finished 13-17 overall, 7-13 GNAC in 2018.
