Sammie Ruggles and Noelle Carey will enroll at Providence College in the fall of 2020 and join the volleyball team.
PROVIDENCE, R.I.-Â Head Coach Margot Royer-Johnson announced today [Dec. 4] that Sammie Ruggles (North Olmsted, Ohio) and Noelle Carey (Belle Harbor, N.Y.) will join the Providence volleyball team in the fall of 2020.
Â
"Sammie has a very fast release with her sets which fits well into our offense," Head Coach Royer-Johnson said. "She is a tough player who refuses to lose. We are really excited for her to be a Friar."
Â
Ruggles attends Lake Ridge Academy and led her volleyball team to a 63-26 record over four years. The 6'0 setter tallied 1,335 assists, 1,067 digs, 758 kills, 233 service aces and 113 blocks during her career. Ruggles is a four-time Ohio High School Volleyball Coaches' Association All-Star, three-time Ohio Sectional Champion and two-time Lorain County Division IV Player of the Year. Ruggles played club volleyball for Academy Volleyball Cleveland.
Â
Ruggles plans to study marketing at Providence College. She is the daughter of Jennifer and Paul Ruggles.Â
Â
"Noelle is a well-trained passer," Coach Royer-Johnson said. "She has good defensive instincts and can be a threat from the service line. She is a great fit for our program and we look forward to working with her."
Â
Carey played club volleyball for Academy and attends The Mary Louis Academy. The 5'6 defensive specialist played an influential role in leading her high school team to three-straight City Championships and three-straight State semifinals.Â
Â
Carey is the daughter of Regina and Craig Carey. She plans to study Finance at Providence College.
