MORAGA, Calif. — Saint Mary’s Volleyball continues to build up their 2025-26 squad with youthful talent, adding freshman Zoe Joshua out of Notre Dame High School in Sherman Oaks. Unlike most prep players, Joshua focussed purely on beach while playing for the Knights, giving her loads of experience on the sand despite coming in as just a freshman.
With numerous tournament wins to her name including the the 18u AVP and the 18u Walker Beach, Joshua concluded her pre collegiate beach career by being named the Mission League MVP after leading Notre Dame Sherman Oaks to an undefeated regular season and a trip to the CIF Southern Section DII Tournament. Standing at 5-8 and left hand dominant, Joshua will bring another dynamic dimension to Saint Mary’s Beach Volleyball
Joshua originally committed to the University of Utah, but after the discontinuation of their program, re-opened her recruiting and selected Saint Mary’s to be the place to call home for the next four years.
“Zoe is a 5’8″ left-handed defender who has achieved notable success in her beach volleyball career!” noted Head Coach Janice Harrer, “Her passion and persistence are qualities that will bring her success in the classroom and in competition! She brings notable experience on the sand, and we look forward to what she will bring to the SMC program!”
Now with four true freshmen coming in for the 2025-26 season, the Gaels truly have set the building blocks for success in the near and far future.
