Since middle blocker Raven Colvin left for the professional ball, several other key players for Purdue volleyball have also entered the transfer portal, thus removing the whole team’s best talent. According to Sports Illustrated’s story on Monday, the quartet entering the gateway consists of outside hitter Chloe Chicoine and pitcher Eva Hudson.
With a hitting % of.287 and an average of 4.81 kills per set, Hudson was Purdue’s most consistent attacking threat all season. Also, she earned first-team All-Big Ten honors and the Midwest Region Player of the Year title.
Chicoine, a sophomore, was an integral part of the Boilers’ 27-7 victory. Averaging 3.08 kills and 2.95 digs per set in her sophomore year, she became the most decorated freshman in Purdue volleyball history.

Lincoln Arneal of Huskers Illustrated wrote on X that Lourdes Myers and Lizzie Carr had also declared their intention to go.
In his fifth season with the Boilers, redshirt senior Myers averaged 1.28 kills and 1.06 blocks per set. Now that her eligibility has expired, the middle blocker wants to play her last season elsewhere.
According to the latest volleyball news reports, middle blocker Carr’s season averages were 1.12 kills and 0.9 blocks. In 2024, she played in over 40 matches for Purdue and came within two sets of 50.
