WALL, TX – Lady Hawks' Volleyball player Brooke Lehr signed with Western Texas College on Monday, Dec. 13, to play Volleyball next season. It takes a unique talent to compete at the next level, and Brooke has what it takes.

When asked why she chose Western Texas, "I first started out looking at the distance; it's close enough but still enough of a drive for the college experience. Then I met Coach Melissa, she's a wonderful person, and after, I met the team, and it felt like home," she said.
We are all proud of Brooke and her accomplishments and wish her all the best next season.
