Alexa Chapla will continue her volleyball career at St. Francis University.
Senior Alexa Chapla, libero for Baldwin High School’s volleyball team, has been playing volleyball since age 10. After spending so much time in the sport, she knew she needed to choose the perfect college – one that met both her academic and athletic goals.
When Chapla visited St. Francis University, she said she fell in love with their smaller campus and the physical therapy program, to which she received an academic scholarship. She also likes that it is not too far from home.
Chapla talked to and toured Chatham University and Frostburg State University as well. However, since she visited St. Francis, it has been her top school.
“I toured and liked both of them, but Saint Francis was the best fit for me,” Chapla said.
Not only does she like SFU for its academics, but she also met the volleyball team there and knew it was the team for her.
“I love the positive atmosphere and motivation this team has,” Chapla said.
