UMC Volleyball adds to Minnesotans for next season

The University of Minnesota Crookston volleyball program and Head Coach Nick Meseck announced the signings of two Minnesotans to continue their collegiate career as Golden Eagles.

Ellery Ehresmann (Setter, Albany) and Abigail Ernster (OH, La Crescent) will wear the colors starting next season. Ehressmann and Ernster join Adrienne Venditto (OH/DS, Bovey) as signees for next year. 

Ellery Ehresmann (Setter, Albany)
Ehresmann joins the Golden Eagles following a prolific prep career at Albany High School. The future Golden Eagle is a two-time Class AA All-State Performer and was named to the Class AA State Tournament All-Tournament Team. She has also won her team MVP twice and is also a two-time Granite Ridge first-team All-Conference performer. As a senior, she was named her conferences’ Setter of the Year and was named the 2024 St. Cloud Times Player of the Year.
Ehresmann has three school records at Albany High School: most assists in a single season (1,021), most assists per set in a single season (10.6) and most sets in a single season (2,319). She also had a match where she finished with 64 assists, which is the fourth most all-time in the state of Minnesota.
Ehresmann is the daughter of Jen and Pete Ehresmann of Albany, Minn. She plans on majoring in Business while being a student-athlete at Minnesota Crookston. She is also a National Honor Society member and is a part of her school’s Student Council.

Coach Meseck is excited about the passion and love for the game that the setter will bring to the program. “Ellery will bring immediate energy to our program! She is an athletic setter that knows how to command an offense. She is able to connect with hitters, and set a beautiful, consistent ball.”

 
Abigail Ernster (Outside Hitter, La Crescent)
Ernster is a two-time All-Conference performer and was named honorable mention in her sophomore year, 2022. Ernster has been on varsity since she was in the eighth grade.
Ernster is the daughter of Amy and Mike Ernster, both of La Crescent, Minn. She plans on majoring in Health Science while a student-athlete at Minnesota Crookston.
Meseck is thrilled about adding a player that can score in a number of different ways. “Abi has a dynamic skill set on offense, and excels at both pins! She finds many ways to score, and connects well with her team. She will bring us needed depth and competition at the pin position.”
