Rita Crockett, United States - 2011 Volleyball Hall of Fame Induction Video

Considered as one of the best all-round volleyball players ever in the world, Rita Crockett has been a trailblazer in the sport of volleyball for parts of five decades and continues to be active in the sport today.
After earning AIAW All-American honors in 1977 as a part of the legendary University of Houston volleyball team along with the late Volleyball Hall of Famer Flo Hyman, Rita turned her skills to the international volleyball scene and helped put the United States among the world's elite. She was selected to the 1980 U.S. Women's Olympic Volleyball Team, which was among the favorites to win the gold medal at the Moscow Olympic Games. However, Rita and her teammates were denied the chance for Olympic stardom in 1980 due to the United States boycott of the Moscow Games.
