Volleyball: Two Stone Bridge Players Verbally Commit - Class of 2011 Amy Christensen to UConn and Class of 2012 Alex Heyn to Ohio State

(Aug. 26, 2010) - Showing its depth and talent, Stone Bridge High School has already had two volleyball players verbally commit to NCAA Division I college scholarships including Class of 2011 Amy Christensen, who will play at the University of Connecticut, and Class of 2012 Alex Heyn, who will play at The Ohio State University.

Christensen, who can play defense as well as she can play the front row, and the 6-foot-4 Heyn helped the Bulldogs to a spectacular 22-3 record last year with the team falling short of the state tournament after setter Amanda Miller broke her leg in the Liberty District tournament.

Both play in the Virginia Elite program with Christensen with the 17s and Heyn with the 16s. Heyn joins Elite teammate Breanna Atkinson, an Ashburn native that plays for the private Madiera School, as an early Class of 2012 commitment. Atkinson will play for Duke starting in the fall of 2012.
