2013 HALL OF FAME INDUCTEE: GRETCHEN FOSTER ROBERTSON '88

On Oct. 18, 2013, Radford University inducted five Highlander Student-Athletes into the Athletics Hall of Fame during a dinner and ceremony held in the College of Business and Economic's multipurpose room. Let's meet volleyball standout Gretchen Foster Robertson.

A Big South all-conference selection and the league's MVP runner-up in 1986 and 1987, Gretchen Foster played an instrumental role in Radford's transition to Division I and helped RU to its first Big South Championship in 1987. She was also named to the Big South All-Tournament teams in each of those seasons.

Foster's stellar play during her four-year career earned her several in-season all-tournament honors and helped lead the Highlanders to 103 victories, including a school-record 31 wins in 1985. The Highlanders posted a .701 winning percentage during that span and enjoyed an 11-2 regular season mark in their first two Big South campaigns.

Resides in Roanoke with her family, and has been associated with Choice Hotels International the past 17 years, currently serving as the Director of Brand Standards.
