Encore: Mimi Colyer: Redefining Gravity as the Heartbeat of the Dallas Pulse

About this episode

This episode features an encore interview with Dallas Pulse rookie Mimi Colyer, discussing her journey from college standout to professional athlete.

Due to unexpected scheduling conflicts, we were unable to record a new episode this week. So with MLV Playoffs right around the corner, we decided to give you an encore presentation of our interview with Dallas Pulse rookie, Mimi Colyer. Stay tuned next week as we have an exciting interview coming up! What does it feel like to be the first-ever number one overall pick for a brand new franchise? This week, we’re joined by the high-flying, heavy-hitting Mimi Colyer. Mimi takes us behind the scenes of her historic draft day at Wisconsin, recounting the surreal moment the confetti popped in the team room just hours before she had to lock back in for practice. We dive into her transition from being a standout at Oregon to a legend at Wisconsin, winning the inaugural AVCA Outside Hitter of the Year award, and what it's like to now lead the charge for the Dallas Pulse in Major League Volleyball. Stick around for our "Side Out Sprint" rapid-fire round, where Mimi reveals her favorite emoji to use in a group chat and who is officially the funniest person in the Pulse locker room.
