Alexis McNair sparkles in the classroom, on the volleyball court and even at The Diamond on Arthur Ashe Boulevard.
The Virginia State University junior and Patrick Henry High of Ashland alumnus has been named the CIAA’s Female Student-Athlete of the Year for her varied talents.
Academically, she has a perfect 4.0 GPA while majoring in mass communications with a minor in sports management.
As a high flying outside hitter on the Trojans volleyball squad, she recorded 136 kills, 41 digs, 20 blocks and 10 service aces this past season.
She also is President of VSU’s Student Athletes Advisory Committee.
You might even spot her at a Richmond Flying Squirrels game or activity at or near The Diamond. She is a summer intern with the local pro team as an event coordinator.
