Discussing life outside of volleyball, Blair revealed her post-high school plans, expressing her desire to prioritize college over continuing her athletic career. “Right now, I’m only thinking about college, not so much sports,” Blair admitted, illustrating the tough decision many athletes face when balancing academics and athletics.

The conversation then turned to the strong sense of community within their school. Both Blair and Fellows acknowledged the importance of support from their classmates and other sports teams, particularly the football players who try to attend volleyball games despite their own busy schedules.

As the episode drew to a close, Colucci engaged Blair in a rapid-fire question round, revealing her personal tastes and preferences. From her love for Cody Johnson’s music to her ideal road trip snack of peanut butter M&M’s and Diet Coke, listeners got a glimpse into Blair’s life beyond the volleyball court.

Ending on a sentimental note, Blair chose “Cover Me Up” by Morgan Wallen as the perfect campfire song, encapsulating the strong blend of camaraderie and enjoyment she finds both on and off the court.
