About Farrell
Jurnee Farrell was a four-year member of the women's volleyball team where she won four consecutive Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference (MEAC) Championships during her time. The Colorado native chose HU because of its rich culture.
She competed in over 50 matches for the Bison while excelling inside the classroom. In 2017, Farrell was selected to the MEAC Commissioner's All-Academic Team.
In her senior campaign, Farrell missed the 2019 MEAC Women's Volleyball Tournament to undergo a stem cell donation with Be the Match. The procedure saved a 57-year-old woman with acute lymphoblastic leukemia.
In Spring 2020, she graduated from The Mecca with a bachelor's degree in criminal justice. After graduation, Farrell plans to pursue a master's degree in forensic investigation at Oklahoma State University in Stillwater, Okla.
