Katie (Schneider) Pendowski’s four-year volleyball career at UWM left her atop the school's all-time assists list. She earned first-team all-league honors in 1999 after claiming second-team all-league recognition in 1997 and 1998. She was also a two-time league player of the week and a member of the league's all-newcomer team in 1996.
She helped the Panthers to regular season league titles in 1997, 1998 and 1999 while helping UWM to the NCAA Tournament in both 1998 and 1999. In fact, the Panthers went 75-15 during her final three seasons. Along with her standing in the school's assists rankings, Pendowski also has the top-two single-season assist totals, including a school-record 1,558 in 1998. She also ranked third on the school's all-time digs list and is in the top 10 for career aces and games played. Plus, Pendowski holds nearly all of the single-game assist records.
Pendowski received her undergraduate degree from UWM's School of Education and later received her master's degree in Curriculum and Instruction. She now works at Badger Middle School in the West Bend School District.
