Middle blocker Alisia Dvorak of the COTR Avalanche just finished her second year enrolled in the kinesiology program in Cranbrook.
She is no stranger to being busy as a student athlete in a very intensive program and playing post-secondary volleyball. She elected to stay close to home attending the College of the Rockies, originally from Fernie, just over an hour down the road.
She talks with Ryan Watters about the pressures and challenges of being a student athlete in the PACWEST.
