TOLEDO, Ohio – University of Toledo head volleyball coach Jason Oliver announced the addition of two signees on Thursday.
 
Izzy Granger (Liberty-Benton High School; Findlay, Ohio) and Macy Medors (Upper Arlington High School; Columbus, Ohio) will join the Rockets' volleyball program for the 2022 season.
 
"We started recruiting both Macy and Izzy very early and identified them as players we wanted in our program back when they were freshmen in high school," Oliver said. "It has been great getting to know them and really knowing that they are going to represent the Rockets perfectly."
 
Granger and Medors both wrapped up successful prep careers this past fall and will be joining a Toledo program that recently secured its first MAC Tournament berth since 2016.
 
"As a coaching staff we want to compete every day," Oliver said. "Recruiting is an extension of that and it is a great way to gauge your program's leadership and culture. When you can commit two players with the character and ability that Macy and Izzy possess, it is an amazing confirmation that we are on the right track as a program."
