Career
Elisabeth Bachman played at UCLA during her time as an undergraduate. While there she completed a highly successful Bruin career with 1,308 kills and 622 blocks, becoming the first Bruin and fifth Pac-10 player in history to record both 1,200 career kills and 600 career blocks.[2] She set a new UCLA and Pac-10 record with a career attack percentage of .362. While at UCLA Bachman was named second-team Verizon Academic All-American, was named to Pac-10 and AVCA All-Pacific Region first teams, and three All-Tournament Teams. At the end of her season in 2000, she was named by Volleyball Magazine as Honorable Mention All-American. At the 2000 USA Volleyball Open Championships playing with the Westwood Volleyball Club of Los Angeles, Bachman won the championship and she was selected All-Tournament.[3]
Bachman was one of nine selected to train with the USA Women's National Team in Colorado Springs, CO. She was selected from a group of 70, due to her aggressive playing on the court and her natural talent that came to her while blocking. After practicing with the team, she was selected to compete on the 2004 Summer Olympics Women's Volleyball Team in Athens, Greece.
While competing in the 2004 Summer Olympics, Bachman led her team to a four-way tie for fifth.[4] Their first match was against China where they lost in a 3-1 match. After losing, they then played Russia where they came to a loss of 3-2.
