Anna Smith
Charleston-raised libero. Three years at Coastal Carolina, now anchoring the back row for Syracuse.
/ 01 — Profile The Player
From Lowcountry youth club courts to the ACC, a libero defined by floor coverage, court IQ, and the kind of academic résumé coaches keep on their refrigerators.
Anna Smith is a Division I libero from Charleston, South Carolina. After three seasons at Coastal Carolina — where she was part of a Sun Belt Conference championship and an NCAA Tournament run — she graduated early to continue her career at Syracuse, competing in the ACC while pursuing a Master's in Political Affairs.
Before college, she was the first Division I commit in the history of Oceanside Collegiate Academy, anchoring four straight state finals and back-to-back championships in 2021 and 2022. Club career at Carolina Rogue and Rio Volleyball capped with a USA Volleyball Nationals bid and a 63rd national finish.
Off the court, she's a criminology, intelligence and political affairs student, a founding board member of the Sport Venture Group Foundation, and a multi-year academic honor roll selection.
