Colleen Finney, a former standout middle blocker for Mizzou volleyball, has signed a professional contract with A.O. Lamias 2013 in Greece.
A native of Blythewood, South Carolina, Finney made a significant impact during her two graduate seasons (2023-2024) at Missouri. She played in all 62 matches and played a key role in the Tigers’ consecutive NCAA Tournament appearances, including a Sweet 16 run in 2024.
Finney recorded 347 kills with an impressive .374 hitting percentage and contributed 155 total blocks during her time at Mizzou. Her hitting percentage ranks third in the program’s history.
Before joining Mizzou, Finney played at Clemson, where she built an impressive collegiate career. Over five seasons, she accumulated 755 kills, 297 blocks, and 934 points in 125 matches.
Finney is the fourth player from coach Dawn Sullivan’s tenure at Missouri to sign a professional contract. After the 2023 season, Dilara Gedikoglu returned to Turkey to play for Shining Stars, while Mychael Vernon joined Akademia Sant’Anna Messina in Italy. Earlier this month, Kiaraliz Perez Catala signed with Las Changas de Naranjito in Puerto Rico.
Finney’s transition to professional volleyball marks another milestone for Mizzou’s program under Sullivan’s leadership.
