<strong>2005</strong> <strong>UMKC</strong> Volleyball<br />
Catalina Suarez No. 8, Number Retired Oct. 31, 1996<br />
<strong>UMKC</strong> produced one of the<br />
greatest collegiate volleyball<br />
players of all time when Catalina<br />
Suarez donned a Kangaroos’<br />
uniform from 1988–89.<br />
And on Oct. 31, 1996, <strong>UMKC</strong><br />
retired the No. 8 in her honor.<br />
She joins former basketball player<br />
Ronnie Schmitz as the only<br />
two <strong>UMKC</strong> student-athletes to<br />
have their uniform number<br />
retired.<br />
Suarez transferred to <strong>UMKC</strong><br />
following the 1986 season after a<br />
two-year stint with the University<br />
of Kansas. After sitting out the<br />
1987 season, she finished her<br />
career at <strong>UMKC</strong> from 1988–89.<br />
In 1989, she was named firstteam<br />
all-Mideast and was an<br />
honorable mention all-American.<br />
She received <strong>UMKC</strong>’s David B.<br />
Milner Award in both 1988-89<br />
and 1989-90, which is presented<br />
to the department’s most inspirational<br />
athlete. She was also a<br />
member of the Colombian national<br />
team for four years and served<br />
as the captain for three years.<br />
The decision to retire Suarez’<br />
number was made by the <strong>UMKC</strong><br />
Special Recognition Committee,<br />
which is composed of selected<br />
members of the Intercollegiate<br />
<strong>Athletics</strong> Committee.<br />
Suarez still ranks at or near the<br />
top of several Division I national<br />
record charts (Source: 2002<br />
NCAA Volleyball Records Book).<br />
