August 7, 2009 - Former Hillsdale College volleyball All-American Melissa Bartlett had an opportunity few recent college graduates have: A chance to play the sport she loves, get paid for it, and take a tour of Europe at the same time.

Bartlett played professional volleyball in Spain in the 2008-09 season, leading her team to a 14-2 record. An All-American at Hillsdale College in 2007, Bartlett will be rejoining the Charger program this fall as a student assistant coach under head coach Chris Gravel.
