PITTSBURGH -- The Pitt Panthers continue to have an incredible month of June when it comes to volleyball recruiting, adding another recruit to the program.

"I am beyond excited and grateful to announce my verbal commitment to play D1 volleyball and continue my academic career at the University of Pittsburgh!," Seeger wrote in her announcement. "I first wanted to thank Coach Fisher, Kellen, Kama, Shaun, and Michael for this amazing opportunity and support. Middle school me is screaming right now! I couldn’t thank my coaches at VolleyFX and Nicksen enough for everything they have ever done for me and pushing me to be my best! I would also like to thank Derryk Williams as well, thank you so much for your guidance and wisdom through this process. Id also like to shout out Michael Hope at Summit Physical therapy I wouldn’t be where I am without him, Carrie, and Madison Mackaig. Lastly I would like to thank my mom and sister for being here every step of the way, they have seen and been there with me through it all. Big things are coming and I am blessed to be apart of it! #H2P 💙💛"
