Over her three seasons, middle hitter Ally Nagle would be a key ingredient to the turnaround of the Otterbein volleyball program.

Nagle played her way to Ohio Athletic Conference (OAC) “Freshman of the Year” honors in 2010, leading the league and breaking the Otterbein single-season record for hitting percentage (.392) in the process. The Cardinals would later make their first two NCAA appearances during her sophomore and junior seasons, with Nagle resetting her own hitting percentage record (.401) that still stands today.

Nagle decided not to return for her senior season and instead focused on her marketing major, but still finished her career as a three-time All-OAC pick (two first team selections). In addition, she brought home first team all-region and honorable mention All-American honors following her junior season.
