Volleyball Stand Out Chloe Winchell Signs Letter of Intent for Doane University

Petoskey, MI – After two amazing seasons in which she took over the Timberwolves Record Book, Outside Hitter, Chloe Winchell (Freeland/Freeland), has signed with her next school.

Winchell leaves North Central as one of the most decorated student-athletes to date. During her career she helped lead the Timberwolves to back-to-back playoff appearances in two winning seasons. She earned numerous awards including: 2x MCCAA Offensive Player of the Week (9/2/2025 & 9/23/2025), All-MCCAA (2025), 2x First Time All-Northern Conference (2024 & 2025), and MCCAA Northern Conference All Freshman Team (2024). She was named to the Buffalo Wild Wings & Corktown Pizza Timberwolves Quad All-Tournament team (2024) and was a nominee for the 2024 Timberwolves Athletics Breakthrough Athlete of the Year award.
