The University of Wisconsin volleyball team will bring on two more new additions to its program, including one player returning to her home state.
Wisconsin announced via social media Thursday that it has signed middle blocker Alicia Andrew (who previously played at Baylor) and defensive specialist/libero Jada Cerniglia (Northern Illinois).
Andrew announced via Instagram earlier this month her commitment to the Badgers. The 6-foot-3 middle blocker from Washington led the Bears in total blocks (103) last season. She also finished the 2024 season with 169 kills.
Andrew played all five sets when Baylor hosted Wisconsin last season, finishing with seven kills. The Badgers eventually won that match 3-2.

Cerniglia, a Cross Plains native that's listed at 5-3, played in 14 matches last season for Northern Illinois. She registered 46 digs for the Huskies, including 10 against Stony Brook on Sept. 14. She announced her intentions to tranfer to Wisconsin in February.
