MADISON – The block of the Wisconsin volleyball team received a major boost on Friday, May 2.

Baylor transfer Allie Andrew, a 6-foot-3 middle blocker, announced her transfer to Wisconsin. A starter the past two seasons, the native of Ridgefield, Washington, could potentially make a formidable middle blocker combination with UW rising senior Carter Booth.

The Badgers could use more experience at the position as the only middles on the roster behind Booth for the upcoming season are 6-4 redshirt freshman Tosia Serafinowska and Natalie Wardlow, an incoming freshman who will arrive on campus this summer.

Andrew comes to Wisconsin with 70 matches of experience that include 58 starts. Baylor went 23-8 last season and 17-13 in 2023, reaching the second round of the NCAA Tournament each season.

Andrew announced her choice on Instagram.

“Forever thankful for Baylor volleyball excited for the future in Wisco,” she wrote.

The addition of Andrew comes as the Badgers also seek help from the transfer portal at right-side hitter in the wake of Grace Lopez’s season-ending knee injury.

Andrew averaged 1.61 kills per set while hitting .396 last season She also led the team with 103 blocks, an average of .98 per set. Those numbers were improvements over her production as a redshirt sophomore: 1.20 kills per set, .296 hitting percentage, 89 blocks (.82 per set).

She has one year of eligibility remaining.
