Elizabeth Reid of London turned in her national letter of intent and will join the program in 2010, along with six others who signed with the program in the past week.

Reid is a 5-foot-11 outside and right side hitter at Jefferson College in Missouri. She will transfer to CU after completing her spring semester there.

"Her international experience and maturity are both important factors as she joins us to build an elite level program," Kritza said of Reid. "She is a very focused young woman who has designs on playing volleyball at the highest levels after completing her studies and is preparing to compete for her country`s national team in the next Olympic Games. We are pleased to call her a Buff."

Reid has been named all-conference and all-region, as well as an NJCAA All-American while at JC.
