Gretchen Henry Picks Gillette

The Lady Pronghorns are set defensively with our newest addition, Gretchen Henry. Gretchen is a 5’0” libero from Rapid City. She has attained 11 letter across volleyball, basketball and lacrosse. She’s been honored with defensive MVP 2024 in volleyball and Mason Short Spirit of the Game award, Most Valuable Middy, MVP and All-State in lacrosse. Saint Thomas More Highschool is advancing Gretchen to us with some impressive stats. Her serving attempts rack up to 708, with 47 aces and a 96 serving percentage. She had zero errors in setting with attempts at 174 and assists at 67. She achieved 26 successful kills along with a whopping 849 digs! Gretchen is proud to have helped lead her team to an appearance at the Sodak Sixteen tournament in 2024. This highly athletic player is going to be the perfect asset to Gillette volleyball.  

Gretchen plans to narrow her decision about major choices as she gets closer to registering for classes. She plans to study either business or education. Gretchen shared that she chose Gillette College for multiple reasons. “The first being that it is small and the community is close. Second, it is closer to home but still gets me away to experience college. Lastly, I love the coach and my future teammates and their energy!” With her natural defensive skills and yearn for close community feel, we have no doubt that Gretchen will fit perfectly as a part of the Pronghorn family!
