🏐 A Comeback Story of Grit and Passion! 🙌 Former Wisconsin Badger volleyball player Courtney Gorum's journey is a testament to the power of second chances and determination. From medical retirement to dominating the game, she's an inspiration to us all. LISTEN to her incredible story of resilience and the pursuit of passion. 👏

Courtney's initial volleyball career at Wisconsin was met with challenges as she never had the opportunity to step onto the court due to medical retirement. However, her passion for the game never waned. Last year, she took on a role as an assistant coach at Madison College Women's Volleyball, working alongside her former teammate Mallory Stone. Little did she know that a casual joke would turn into a remarkable reality.

Courtney discovered that she had two years of eligibility remaining Madison College and seized the opportunity to reignite her volleyball career. Now, she's back in action with the Wolfpack, not just as a player but almost serving as a player/coach on the court.

And here's the incredible part - Courtney is dominating the game. She's not just playing; she's excelling. In fact, she's in the top 15 nationally for total kills. Her story is a testament to her resilience nature and the unyielding pursuit of one's passion.
