Rodriguez walks-on at NMSU
Congrats to former Las Cruces DS/Libero Cameron Rodriguez for earning a spot on the NMSU Aggie Volleyball team as a walk-on.
A 2022 graduate, Rodriguez played libero for the majority of her junior year and moved over to DS as a senior. Having faced Centennial over her high school career will have prepared her for any heat–she regularly defended against a D1-caliber hitter in Tess Fuqua.
Good luck, Cameron!
