February 17, 2026 | Volleyball
KNOXVILLE, Tenn. --Â Tennessee volleyball setter Caroline Kerr has earned an invite to the USA Volleyball Collegiate National Team Training Camp. USA volleyball announced its roster on Tuesday, which features the Lady Vol setter among the 62Â athletes invited to the camp.
Â
Kerr is no stranger to representing the US National team. Kerr was a member of the U23 National Team last summer that represented the United States at the NORCECA Women's U23 Pan American Cup. While captaining the national team, Kerr helped lead the team on an undefeated run that saw them take home the gold medal in a 3-0 win over Canada back on Aug. 1, 2025.
Â
Heading into her Redshirt Senior campaign in 2026, Kerr is one of the most accomplished players in Tennessee history. During the 2025 season, Kerr earned her third AVCA All-American honor of her career, becoming just the second Tennessee volleyball player to be named an All-American three times. Kerr eclipsed the 3,000-assist mark in 2025 and is sixth all-time in program history with 3,259 assists. Kerr also ranks sixth in program history in assists per set at 10.65.
Â
Kerr finished with 945 assists and 9.84 assists per set during the 2025 season, both ranking the Champaign, Illinois native in the top ten in the SEC. Kerr was crucial in Tennessee's offensive performance during the year with 14.17 kills per set and a .292 hitting percentage, both ranking in the top 15 nationally. Kerr had 20 or more contests with 30 or more assists, including tying her career-high assist total with 57 at home against Florida on Oct. 15, 2025. Kerr garnered First Team All-SEC honors this past season, the third consecutive season that the setter received all-conference recognition.
Â
Kerr is not the only recent Lady Vol to earn national team callups. Nina Cajic earned a callup to the Serbian national team roster last year ahead of the 2025 Volleyball Nations League.
