CHLOE SCHWEITZER
I have always had a passion for volleyball! I started playing in 2nd grade up and played until the end of my junior year of high school. For the majority of my volleyball career, I played exclusively as a setter until I played a club season as a D.S. and I absolutely loved it! My love for volleyball continues as I play sand volleyball in the summer, cheer on the Wisconsin Badgers and now being a coach. In my free time, I love reading, pet-sitting, and spending time with my family, friends and boyfriend!

ERIN KNUDSEN
Volleyball Experience: I played competitively throughout middle and high school and then shifted to casual play in college. After graduating, I began reffing and coaching, a role I’ve maintained every year except for the year I had my daughter and her first year of life. I’ve coached various age groups, from middle school to junior varsity, in both school teams and clubs.
Personal: I’ve been teaching high school for nine years, currently at Harrisburg School District. I rely on a good amount of caffeine to keep me energized. I have a three-year-old daughter and a husband, both of whom share my passion for sports—especially volleyball!
