Benet’s Wolf commits to Wake Forest

Caroline Wolf is about to follow another Benet volleyball star south for college.

Wolf, who will be a senior at Benet this fall, has verbally committed to play volleyball at Wake Forest. She will be following south Sheila Doyle, a senior this year, who is headed for North Carolina in the fall.

“I loved the coaching staff and the team at Wake Forest and can’t wait to join their family,” Wolf said. “I just loved everything about the school.”

Wolf, a 5-foot-6 libero, was a starter on Benet’s team last fall that repeated as Class 4A champion. Wolf finished third in digs and second in passing rating for a Benet team that finished 13th in the nation, according to PrepVolleyball.com. Wolf plays club for Sports Performance.

“Caroline plays with a high level of energy that is contagious to her teammates,” Benet coach Brad Baker said. “She is a tireless worker who has set high goals for herself and continues to work hard to achieve them. Her passion for the sport of volleyball is reflected in her play and this passion is what is going to continue her on to greatness.”
