One of the all-time greats for New Haven women's volleyball, Jane Grant-Griffith currently ranks (as of Jan. 2016) first all-time with 389 service aces, second in career kills with 1,895 and second in blocks with 612 from 1993-96.
In addition to her 1,895 kills, Grant-Griffith collected 1,240 digs, making her one of seven student-athletes to corral at least 1,000 kills and 1,000 digs as a Charger. In addition to appearing twice on the single-season top-10 lists in both kills and blocks, Grant-Griffith finished as the team-leader in kills all four years, while leading the squad in service aces in three of four years.
Grant-Griffith was twice recognized as an All-American by the American Volleyball Coaches Association (AVCA), including being named New Haven's first-ever All-America First Teamer. She was also the program's first CoSIDA Academic All-America selection in 1996. In addition to All-American accolades in 1995 and 1996, Grant-Griffith was also named the New England Collegiate Conference (NECC) Player of the Year in both seasons, while also earning All-NECC First Team distinction in three seasons.
During her four-year career, New Haven advanced to the NCAA Division II Elite Eight in all four seasons and compiled a record of 160-11 (.935) during that span.
