Hall of Fame
Brittany O’Bryant is regarded as one of the premiere middles in Little East Conference (LEC) women’s volleyball history, and is arguably the greatest volleyball athlete ever to suit up at Keene State College.
O'Bryant was a three-time All-LEC selection, earning First Team honors her junior and senior campaigns in 2007 and 2008, respectively. She led the Owls to their first-ever LEC regular season title in 2007, a feat their repeated in 2008 with an undefeated conference slate before capturing Keene State’s first and to-date only LEC tournament championship. Tied 2-2 with UMass Boston heading into the decisive fifth set, O'Bryant rallied the Owls from a 7-1 deficit for a stunning 17-15 come-from-behind win that sent the Owls to the NCAA tournament for the very first time. The 2008 Owls squad set a school record for wins with 29, as well as fewest losses (9), and also set a then program record for consecutive wins with 12.
The Merrimack, New Hampshire native holds a host of school records. She is Keene State's all-time leader in kills (1,641), attacks (4,221) and total blocks (425), and is second in both career solo blocks (211) and career block assists (214). She tallied program-record totals of 519 kills and 160 total blocks as a senior, and a program-record 1,376 attacks as a sophomore. Her 477 kills as a junior are the second-most in a single-season at KSC.
O'Bryant earned her bachelor’s degree in elementary education from Keene State in 2009. She was inducted into the Keene State College Hall of Fame in 2019.
