When you click on the link for the volleyball team on Cornell’s athletics website, there are two discernible figures in the background. The first is a cutout of former setter Amy Gordon '07, and the second is a close-up of current senior Megan Mushovic. This picture was not selected randomly. Mushovic, team co-captain and starting libero for the Red since her rookie season, is not your average athlete.

On Saturday, junior libero Meagan Mushovic recorded 18 digs, bringing her career total to 1,362 digs, breaking the Red’s career record. The record was previously held by fellow libero Kelly Kramer, who played for Cornell from 2002-2005. Kramer, a star libero who helped lead Cornell to the Ivy title in 2005, has held or still holds many of Cornell’s digs-related records, which Mushovic has been steadily overtaking.

Mushovic, a Human Biology, Health and Society major from Coronado, Calif., grabbed headlines as a sophomore, earning the Red’s MVP award after a season in which she averaged 6.16 digs per game, eighth in the nation. Mushovic also broke Cornell’s record for digs in a single season as well as the record for digs per game.
