🏐 Heather Pavlik on Recruiting, Character, and Building Champions 💯

Juniata College Head Women’s Volleyball Coach Heather Pavlik—fresh off leading her team to three straight NCAA Division III National Championships and earning 2024 AVCA National Coach of the Year honors—shares her perspective on what truly matters in the recruiting process.
