Skidmore College Athletics

Courtney Lee's exemplary leadership catapulted Skidmore Volleyball to one of the top twelve teams in New York State. As team captain from 1999 to 2001, she competed in two National Collegiate Athletic Association Division III tournaments (1999 and 2000). Recognized as the greatest setter in Skidmore volleyball history, she is one of the best to compete at the NCAA Division III level.  

In her rookie year, Courtney established Skidmore's single season and career assist record and was named Upstate Collegiate Athletic Association Rookie of the Year. As a sophomore, she not only set a Skidmore record for single service aces per game but led NCAA Division III nationally. During her junior season, she captained the team to its first NCAA Championship appearance and Skidmore's first New York State Women's Collegiate Athletic Association (NYSWCAA) Championship.  

Capping her Skidmore career, the senior became the first Skidmore player to be recognized by the American Volleyball Coaches Association as a Regional All-American and the first Skidmore volleyball player to be recognized as a Verizon Academic All-American. She earned UCAA Player of the Year honors as a junior and senior, Courtney was the 2001 recipient of Skidmore's Senior Athlete and Scholar-Athlete awards.
