Ursuline College Athletic Hall of Fame
Margie Kall was a member of both the basketball and volleyball programs when Ursuline College began competitive athletics in 2000. She proved to be a vital player in establishing both sports, earning many different honors and setting Ursuline records.
Kall played four years of volleyball, serving two years as Team Captain. She also played two years of basketball for the Arrows. Kall, who was eligible for awards for only three of her four years at Ursuline, as it transitioned into the American Mideast Conference (AMC) and the NAIA, was a 2001 AMC Honorable Mention and a 2003 All-AMC Second Team (North Division) selection in volleyball.
Because of the volleyball team’s newness in the conference, Kall may not have received all the honors she truly deserved, but she made sure her opponents respected her. In 2003, she led the entire league with 5.26 kills per game (658 total) and a .416 attack percentage.
She also ranked second with 2.24 blocks per game (280 total) and ninth with 4.55 digs per game (569 total). Kall established an Ursuline record and will always be known as the first Ursuline volleyball player to reach 1,000 career kills.
Kall graduated in the spring of 2004 with a degree in Early Childhood Education, earning a 3.35 grade point average. She earned a post-graduate degree from Notre Dame College in Education.
