Junior forward Anna Morris will leave Northwestern to start her Division I volleyball career at Ohio State, she announced in an Instagram post Thursday.

Throughout her NU basketball career, Morris averaged 8.2 minutes per game, 0.9 rebounds per game and 0.6 assists per game. 

In high school, Morris was named a member of the Naismith High School Player of the Year Watch List, a McDonald’s All-American nominee and Big North Player of the Year. When she joined NU, she filled the shoes of Abi Scheid. 

The abrupt switch in schools and in sports comes as a shock for many NU supporters. With Morris’ exit, the Cats will aim to find a forward to fill her shoes on the court.
