One of the top hitters in the state has found her future volleyball home.

City High junior Hattie Galloway announced her commitment to Milwaukee on Wednesday with a post on social media.

“I am super excited to announce my commitment to UW Milwaukee,” Galloway wrote on a post on Instagram. “Thank you to my family and all the Rockets coaches, especially, Jay, Denise and David for supporting me. And a big thank you to Coach Susie, Coach Lindsey and Coach Katie for believing in me.”

A three-year starter at City High, Galloway is coming off the best season of her career last fall as a junior.

Galloway had career-highs in kills, digs and blocks last fall on her way to earning second-team Class 5A all-state honors after helping City High to a 9-19 record.

The 6-foot-1 Galloway was one of only two players in Class 5A with at least 270 kills, a hitting percentage of .300 and 70 blocks last season.

Galloway led City High with 270 kills, a .321 hitting efficiency and 73 blocks on her way to being named a unanimous Mississippi Valley Conference all-Valley Division first team pick.

The 6-foot-1 Galloway also had a career-high 107 digs and 19 ace serves.

In three prep seasons Galloway has amassed 588 kills and 196 blocks.

Also a starter on the City High basketball team Galloway averaged 6.9 points and a team-high 7.4 rebounds per game for the Little Hawks last season.
