Freshman middle blocker Kyra Palmbush for Idaho volleyball announced her decision to transfer to Azusa Pacific University via an Instagram post.

“The amount of growth I have experienced in the past year is astounding. I have met so many incredible people and gained relationships I will cherish for a lifetime. However, part of growing and learning is discovering what you don’t want as well as what you do. Through this process, I have discovered that I need to pursue what makes me truly happy,” Palmbush said in an Instagram post. “I have made the decision to transfer and play volleyball at Azusa Pacific University. I believe this will continue my path of learning and growing into the person I hope to become. The amount of love and support I have received for this decision has been wonderfully overwhelming and I know this is what God has been calling me to. No matter what, Moscow, Idaho will always have a special place in my heart and I am beyond grateful for this past year.”

The Idaho volleyball standout was a regular in the Vandal rotation, being one of four players to lead the team in sets played, appearing in 124 in 2019.

Palmbush was the team leader in blocks (142) and hitting percentage (34.3%). She also finished the season third in total points scored and fourth in kills.
