The thought of playing college volleyball didn’t really surface for Rehobeth’s Peyton Hartigan until the 10th grade.
“I think it hit me in 10th grade,” Hartigan said Tuesday morning. “I was sitting down and talking to dad and he was like, ‘Do you want to play ?’ At first, I was iffy about it of, ‘What should I do? Can I handle it all at one time?’ By the end of 10th grade, I was prepared and was like, ‘I can do it.’ It hit me then that I wanted to play college.”

Hartigan can also play in the back on defense, as evident by her dig totals. Still, her strong suite is setting up teammates for kills.
Hartigan said Coastal Alabama coaches made a big impression on her during the recruiting process. She also liked the school campus in Bay Minette.
