She was also a two-time MVC Honor Roll selection and graduated with a bachelor's degree in psychology.
A native of Council Bluffs, Iowa, Witte enjoyed an exceptional prep career at Lewis Central High School as a four-year varsity starter. She earned First Team All-State honors in volleyball after recording 484 kills, 292 digs, and 41 blocks during her senior season. She was selected to compete in the Iowa High School Senior Classic and finished seventh in the state in kills across all classifications.
