Coach Bitter on Geisler:
“She reminds be a lot of Brie [Groskruetz] in the back
row. She is so fun to watch. She is a quick, smart player
that isn’t afraid to go to the back row on the end line
and swing at a ball to make a save. She is the type of player
that will dive all over the court. Her desire to get a ball
down and to run through a wall to get it is unbelievable.
Chelsea is going to bring a lot of spunk, finesse and aggressiveness
to BSU.”
