A native of New Mexico, Lehocky was an Academic All-American player at Otero Junior College in La Junta, Colo., who after earning her Associates degree, with honors, continued her college career at NCAA Division III Keene State in Keene, New Hampshire, playing one season as a middle blocker with the Owls.
