Southwestern Assemblies of God University (SAGU) volleyball Nikki Almaguer Waxahachie High School

Almaguer is a 5’8 outside hitter, but according to SAGU Volleyball Head Coach Hank Moore , she is also quite versatile, “We are getting a great athlete who is a very versatile player.  Nikki can play any front row position and all back row positions as well.”

In her senior season with the Lady Indians, Almaguer was part of a team that had an impressive 20-2 record.
In addition to her time at Waxahachie High School, Coach Moore has coached Almaguer for two years in club with Ellis County Juniors.

Almaguer is only the second player from Waxahachie High School to sign with the Lady Lions.  She will join sophomore Celi Bruce , who was the first Lady Indian to turn into a Lady Lion.

SAGU will also be a family affair for Almaguer.  Her brother-in-law Joel Ramirez is a SAGU alum that was instrumental in her recruitment.  Ramirez played soccer for the Lions.

“We are very excited to have Nikki,” says Moore, “She is a great teammate and we are so glad that she has picked our program to pursue her collegiate career, both academically and athletically. She will be a blessing to our entire University.”

Almaguer is the first signee for the 2017 recruiting class of SAGU volleyball.
