COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo.—USA Volleyball has announced players and staff of the 2022 U.S. Women's Collegiate National Team (WCNT). University of Hawai'i women's volleyball middle blocker Amber Igiede has been named as one of the country's top 38 collegiate players to make the team.
 
Igiede, who will be a junior for the 2022 season in the fall, is one of 10 middle blockers on the squad. She is the only representative from the Big West Conference.
 
Along with the WNT Open Program and the WNT Spring Training Camp, the WCNT is an opportunity for the U.S. Women's National Team (WNT) coaching staff to observe and evaluate the NCAA athletes with the highest potential. Several former WCNT members are now on the WNT, including 2020 Olympic gold medalists Michelle Bartsch-Hackley, Annie Drews, Chiaka Ogbogu, Kelsey Robinson and Jordan Thompson.
 
The 2022 Collegiate National Team will train June 19-25 at the National Team Training Center in Anaheim, Calif. Athletes will train among the best collegiate players in the country, watch the WNT training sessions, study the USA systems, meet with Tokyo 2020 Olympians and be observed by the WNT staff.
