Bio

Coach’s Comments: "Rachele came to our program and brought a competitive swagger to our team. She hates to lose and brought that mentality to our team and play on the court. Her all-around skills provides great balance to our offense and anchors our defense, plus she adds one of the top serves in the nation. On offense her powerful and consistent arm swing allow her to keep defenses honest while her 'libero like' defensive skills allow her to shut down opponents and provide a solid pass to our setters."
 
2021 (Freshmen): Played in 130 sets... recorded 315 kills at 2.42 kills per set, a .301 hitting percentage, 91 aces (fourth in the NJCAA), 330 digs, and 44 blocks...Named NJCAA Second Team All-American, First Team All-District, KJCCC Second Team All-Conference,  KJCCC Offensive Player of the Week, was named to the NJCAA National Tournament All-Tournament team and was named Cowley College Athlete of the Month. Her 91 aces rank her fourth all-time in Cowley history in total aces in a season.
 
Before Cowley: Prepped at Liceo Statale Guarino Veronese in San Bonifacio, Italy. In volleyball, she began playing for the top volleyball clubs in her region when she was 15 years old. Tessari began playing for EST Volley who selected only the top players of every city. While playing for them, her team finished second place overall. The next year, she helped lead them to a D League championship and was named captain. Tessari then played for Montecchio in the 18 U junior championships and the C League where they competed several times in the region finals to rise to the national phases. Last year, she competed for Villafranca Volley. There, Tessari had her best season competing for the playoffs to win the B League but, due to Covid-19, could not finish the season.
