These additions include two middle blockers, a libero, a setter, a libero/setter, and an outside hitter. Of the six new signees, all are incoming freshman, with two coming from Washington, and one each coming from Idaho, Michigan, Oklahoma, and Oregon.

In her senior season at Jesuit, she was named First Team All-League and a Scholar Athlete as the team captain of the 29-2 Crusaders, going on to win the Oregon 6A State Championship.
Coach Schroeder on Jackie Carle: “Jackie is an individual who constantly has a smile on her face, and plays with so much passion. She has proven to be selfless, and is willing to play whatever role her team needs to maximize the group’s potential. Jackie has played on some of the most competitive teams in the Pacific Northwest and will bring a lot of experience as a freshman.”
